Got trucklites and not totally happy / convinced yes they are twin beam and LED white and look good, but I don't think they are bright enough.

Anyone else a bit disappointed with them?

as always thanks for all suggestions.

Think the Noldens will be the ones.

Agree with the above..

look fantastic but on dip beam light emission is not "amazing". ( I expected to be more impressed)

Also the light pattern on the road is a little weird. You get two kind of brighter Vs just in front of you.

Speakers here too...
UT fitted JW Speakers to my Keswick Special and, aside from a minor initial adjustment issue, I am pleasingly surprised with them... Thumbs Up

And they look good from the face on view when not in use too... Mr. Green

Well chuffed with my Noldens. Spread of light on low beam is excellent. If anything, the difference to main beam isnt huge, but thats ok as low beam seems great.
Ps, I am looking to come up with something even better for full beam...

Speaker Evo 2's, as above there is not much difference with high beam plus I think the older beam pattern was better. Andy

I'm very happy with mine, they are not Noldens, or Speakers, or Trucklites, but the brightness of the main beam is great, on a par with the Xenons on my Range Rover, the LED Halo on the sidelights looks REALLY cool, and makes the Defender very visible at all times, and the full beam is great too. No need for spotlights!

The one thing that isn't amazing is having the light guards in front of them, I think it casts a slight dark spot in the beam but as my panels have holes in and I'd like to protect the expensive lights from damage and prevent theft, I'll leave as is.
