United Kingdom 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 S Manual Aintree Green
headlight/sidelight combo

Hi all,
have realised this morning that I have a headlight out, so will need to replace the bulb, will be using the Nightbreaker bulbs as reccomended by others on here, my question is , are these a bright white type of bulb , if so , in order to keep it all looking the same i would need to change the sidelights as well, so what bulbs have you used that were the same or matched the nightbreaker ones?
Thanks

And

They are certainly bright and the recommendation is that you change the headlights as a pair, left and right. Even night breaker unlimited's look yellow when comparing them to the white LED's I've fitted. I wouldn't worry about the sidelights to much.

If you go the nightbreaker route just make sure that you get the latest issue which have the extra word 'unlimited'. Some retailers are still retailing the older version.

Oh and don't even think about converting to HID xenon; I did and took them out after two evenings use; just terrible.

Scotland 2012 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Baltic Blue

Hi, I'm in the process of upgrading the standard bulbs on my 2012 Freelander. Thing is, now my front near side dip light is looking for aeroplanes whilst the off side is fine? Also now the f/n/s will not tilt when I move the adjustment switch in the cockpit. Shocked is there a reset for this or a manual override?

Hi
I realise this is an old post but which LED bulbs did you buy?
I'm looking for H11 dipped beam,
