Please does anyone have front-on photos of 8700s mounted on a Defender but not switched on?
I'm taking the plunge (and a second mortgage) but can't decide whether to buy chrome or black. Preferably dark coloured defenders

Cheers - nice pics of a very cool Defender - the black lights suit it well
Mine's not so cool, like this: Click image to enlarge so I'd also like to see some chrome ones as well (e.g. to see if they look "standard"...)

you may aswell order the rest of the LED lights whilst your there! mine looks daf with the yelow glow of the side lights and the crisp white light of the LEDs.
Plus it'll help stop the headlights getting nicked and you can do them all at once |

Aaaah - but his is "The New Defender" not an old one like mine
I'm now tending towards chrome as I'm never going to pull off the "cool" look, like you guys. I see the headlights as part of its "face" (there's something like 4 colours there already) and looking at my own photo  I notice the DRLs and sidelights (not going to be LEDs) look quite "chromy" already.
Wish I had a picture of them fitted on a Defender though... Tell someone you love them today because life is short. But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing... |

I can/will post pictures of the 8700 Evolution with chrome ring installed on my SVX after 19 October
That is if the package from Tim/Mobilecentre which should be in transit to me arrives and custom clears before the 18th
In the meantime you can see pictures posted by Tim of both versions with/without chrome toward the lower end of page 4 of following thread. Actually it is Daniele's thread and there are many more pictures by himself too.... http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic15159-45.html Where will you order them? I first had checked with Nakatenga, but while you can order them on their website now, I decided to call them first about availability, and they had to admit nothing in stock, and would take more than a month for them to get hold of them. Mobilecentre still show them on their website as available, and Tim was very accommodating if you know what I mean You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

Ughhh - just PMd Peter at Naka... still, it's only pixels
I should probably wait a month anyway until my bloody daughter starts work and paying for her own flat 
Thanks for the heads up - I'll ask Tim what he can do for me Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

I'm going for the "yesterday" look (my kids would expect that).
I've PMd Tim about some chrome ones but I fear I'll have to wait, as Eric's had my set Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

Looks great - loads of character
Just occurred to me - the reason I don't see many chrome 8700s is 'cos they only just came out. Doh! Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
