Safety.

LED's (light emitting diodes) react much quicker than your standard "Prince of Darkness" incandescent lights. This can translate into giving the vehicle behind an extra 20 feet (when traveling at 65MPH) in which to decide if he really wants to park his car in the rear of your Land Rover.

Quick reaction time.

LED's are solid-state devices; this means there are no filaments to heat up to produce the light. This creates an "instant on" meaning that the driver/s behind you no longer sees the slow transition from one intensity to another. Instead, the driver sees a definitive switch between sidelight and brake light; leaving no doubt about whether or not your Land Rover is slowing down.

Cleaner colours.

LED's deliver a much truer colour because the LED itself is providing the colour not the lens cover.

Now let's get to the best parts; When you install LEDs on your Land Rover, you can say good by (and what a good buy) to burnt out spring bases, ceased bulbs, accumulated dirt and debris inside the lens housing. Once installed the only thing to clean is the outside of the lens.

Economy.

Exposing incandescent light filaments to the everyday vibrations of driving your Land Rover, both on and off-road, reduces the life expectancy and the reliability of the bulb. On the other hand, LED's don't suffer from vibrations, bumps or the bangs of everyday driving. This ability to "rise above" normal conditions is one reason the LED's can give you up to 100,000 hours (or over 11 years at 24 hours per day)

LED's are totally sealed in epoxy making them watertight. The benefits here are obvious, when wading in your Land Rover, down river with your lights on, the fish will be able to see you coming and take appropriate action.

LED's also consume less power than their incandescent counterparts, and while we all know that Land Rovers never breakdown, you can provide 4-way hazard protection for the vehicle that has for a lot longer without of fear running your battery down.
