Looking at my 2010 RRS front bumper the fog lights do not have a bezel to access them. Looks like bumper off for replacement- is this standard for this year all pictures on 'tinternet show bezels? |

I replaced mine by removing the wheel and pulling back the wheel arch liner, passenger side was a little fiddly due to the washer fluid bottle but the drivers side was very straight forward, I also popped the headlights off to help. I know some people have managed to do it without removing the wheel but I found it was too tight for me. Probably took me about 1.5hrs in total including fitting the LED load resistors and I’m not a very experienced DIY car person Lee

You fitted led load resistors? I wasn’t aware they were needed i thought the led fog part just plugs and play powerfull uk say on the product description? So will i get a canbus warning if i just plug them straight in? |

Sorry, my mistake no load resistors needed, I did my wife’s Mini Countryman the same day which did need them!

Though it was only indicators that needed resistors when fitting new style rear light to pre facelift cars.

Will this same kit fit the l320 2010 model? Reason i ask is i emailed them and they said they hd not tried and they dont sell these for the l320 but i thought discovery 4 and l320 was the same? |

Its a strange one if they did fit you would think powerfull uk would advertise this like the other 4 types they do but not this set which is strange, they said its just the brackets that might not be the same but i imagined they would he i mean why change them, hopefully another member will be able to confirm its alot of messing £100 to buy them and send back if they dont fit. |

If it helps at all the L/R part number for the facelift L320 and Disco 4 fog lights are the same part number, so would really have thought they would fit. The pre-face lift sport and Disco 3 are the same but sure they are a different diameter so will not fit the 2010 on cars. I did have a couple of the "carbuncle pod" lamp kits here for the 05-09 cars and they had a large and small lamp in them, the larger one was the same size as the one fitted to car and the smaller one I'm sure was actualy the same size as on my A/B.
