I know it is with the OP but on topic with the gist of the latest posts here. My recent replacement headlamp from a retailer supplying Hella head lamps cost £466 delivered. The identical one from LR (made by Hella) is around £1200. And of course if I'd asked LR to replace it, there would have been at least half an hours labour added to that for what is a 5 minute job. Some mark up eh? Robin

I had a nightmare Autoglass swapped my screen in my 18MY had to wait for a RR branded one plus had to escalate as they were going to leave me with a hole in my windscreen as i was going away and they didnt have an appointment. Then after 2 appointments and recalibrating the ADAS etc, a few weeks later i got loads of dash errors about headlights, forward alert etc. After racking up £500+ in bills at Knutsford dealership getting it sorted i then had to complain to Autoglass and to be fair they refunded me the dealers invoice and my excess.

On a newish warranty car I'd still insist on the JLR branded screen, but others are right the Pilkington OEM screens are identical to the JLR branded Pilkington screens.

Had my 5th screen fitted last year by Autoglass. The first 4 were JLR OEM since the car was less than 3 years old as per Admiral policy. Last screen was not OEM but still Pilkington (who supply JLR). It’s an identical screen except that Pilkington cover over the Range Rover logo with a black patch! Autoglass did a good job each time. 2014 RRS AB Santorini Black |
