LED interior lighting

After some help with a good LED bulb kit for my L320 RRS.
I purchased a super bright led kit from eBay a year ago and replaced all the interior bulbs and it looked great but 12 months on and they are all starting to fail one by one πŸ™ˆ

Is there anyone that supply a good kit or is it a case of just keep replacing what I have as they fail ? 2017 SVR. SVO Scafell grey Ebony interior

This is exactly why i have never done this, because i have never found a quality kit including all the necessary bulbs needed. Hopefully someone will point us in the right direction Thumbs Up 2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

Powerful UK do a set for the whole vehicle:

Out of stock currently but the door cards can still be bought. No idea if they're any good as I haven't tried them but they are something I'm considering. Not for looks but for more light, especially in the boot. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

I've just fitted a set of PowerfulUK LED's and they are nice and bright, I'm very happy with the upgrade but mine have only been installed a few weeks so I've no idea on reliability. The light colour is very nice too, it improves the dash in my opinion.

If anyone does go for these then the rear number plate lights are a terrible fit, particularly the right hand one but it does go in. I expected it to break first, but it goes. 13MY Range Rover Sport Autobiography SDV6 - mine

As I mentioned in a previous post I bought the full set of LED bulbs from PowerfullUK. The lamp fittings for the door puddle lights and under dash lamps were very loose after fitting and the number plate lamps no matter how hard I tried would not fit as the male connector built into the lamp unit was of bad manufacture and simply would not connect to the car loom.

So for me reading here, terrible fit and quality dont bode well for these, if they cant get the fit right i wonder how long the LEDs will last. Think i will pass on Powerful UK Whistle 2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

I was thinking this myself. Mine were just bulb replacements so fit perfectly but only seem to last just over 12 months.

I would rather change every year than have badly fitting replacements! 2017 SVR. SVO Scafell grey Ebony interior

I used these, not cheap but Philips give 12 years lifetime guaranteed for what it's worth, been in 3 years and have not had one fail yet.



Cheers

I bought these. The only ones which were the wrong type were the visor ones which didn`t bother me. 6 months on and still ok.

I can vouch for Powerful UK. I had a full set of interior LED's from them and two years on not a single problem. I know if you look around you can find way cheaper, but you then hear bad reports about them.....

As mentioned previously the door puddle lamps supplied by Powerfull UK fitted very loosly. Today one partially fell out and gouged the plastic trim which runs along the base of the door opening as the door was being closed.

I wonder if that’s because they are meant for post face lift door cards rather than the pre. Or vice Versa. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)
