I have upgraded with JW Speaker headlights and led lamps in place of standard on my three week old 110USW. I have other defenders and the JW lights are a huge improvement, well worth the money paid. Most of my driving is on main roads and country roads, agreed not a huge difference when switched to main beam but enough for me. Plus they look great on the vehicle.

Sorry maybe didn't make my comment clear.

I like the svx set up very much.
It was the crystal headlight kits with bowls and uprated bulbs I was referring to as a good budget option

I have driven a few with different types of LED headlight. The Nolden did seem to have a better high beam than the Speaker but I still just am not hugely fussed for them.

Prefer a more factory fit look.

Me too. Crystals with osram Nightbreakers and a set of led sides etc from bolt on bits. Headlights are excellent. Crystals and Nightbreakers were about £60 .. Plenty of other things to spent £800 on. 2008 Defender 110 XS SW - M57N2 / 6HP28X
