Just bought a defender 90, it’s got 2 wipac spots on bull bar and upgraded led headlights. Also got 4 rectangular spotlights on roof bar. Gonna change bulbs in wipacs to white led’s to match headlights. Not sure whether to put light bar on roof or just replace 4 rectangular spots to led type??? Have to change current spots to something, they are warm white / yellow colour and just don’t look right. Any suggestions

I personally prefer individual lights to a light bar as you can then vary the lens/beam type to suit your purposes and mix and match between distance and flood in varying positions, but it depends what you are actually hoping to achieve.

Agree. I have decided to go down the individual spotlight route. Have you and recommendations on types/brands??

Agricultural rather than 4x4 would be my recommendation. Agri has less of a price premium than “off road”. Also don’t bother with cheap Chinese eBay specials. If you want good led lights they will cost unfortunately. Something with an aluminium body rather than plastic is usually a marker of being reasonable quality for the rest of it as well.
