Upgrading headlights

(1/2) > >>

petergalileo:
Right, I am sure some of you read it, but after getting a set of Discovery 3 headlights to try and put on my Disco 1 I have decided it is a bit beyond me.

It can be done, The bumper needs lowering by 2 inches, the bonnet would need cutting straight accross the front, the headlamp mounting box needs removing, the main front panel requires moving back 2 inches along with the battery and part of the radiator.  

They are absolutely huge !

Anyway, I have now decided on another idea but before I do, whats better out of the later disco 1 headlamps or the TD5 headlamps (not the upgrade TD5 headlamps as they are way too expensive at the minute)

In fact, looking at pictures of them both, is there any difference at all ?

Thanks

Fingers Mclean:
