Yeah, my bulbs are probably ready to be replaced. I'd love to look at that PDF, I don't see it attached? Been soldering since grade school I cannot recall the bulbs everyone was raving about but they were good quality and reasonably priced so it just might be time.
I've used the Morimoto mini stuff on a Subaru, it worked GREAT! I've not found the beam on ours lacking too much honestly but if I had a spare set of buckets I'd consider tinkering. My existing setup has been polished and has a clear film applied that might not bake well Clear as a bell though which makes a HUGE difference!

The .pdf should be there now, not sure what happened the first time.

Ha, not a chance. It's optically clear and not the crap you pick up at Walmart. The lights should never need polishing again with this stuff!
Hotrod you're pushing me over the fence lol. Bulbs may be my very next thing! Tempted to lightly upgrade my ballast too but I'll try bulbs first. The PDF makes it pretty straightforward a job and is very much appreciated - especially with the parts links. 40-45w probably the most I'd go. I'll be interested to see what others do for reflectors and whatnot...
Ya, after doing the retrofit on my tundra I'm very tempted as well. Even think I'm gonna convert the '55 over.
ALL vehicles deserve good lights! You could keep it pretty subtle period correct-ish looking if you use a housing with a simple chrome bezel and have the projector lens mounted flush with no shroud, much like setup Singer uses on their 964s etc.
There are a lot of drop in solutions for generic round housings but most of them are LED and can't match the HID output. Besides, drop-in is sooooo boring.

Evan, why do my LEDs Rover lights seem so good? Is just that the turbos have become so dim over time? Is it possible that they really have 3800 LMs on high beam where the JW speakers are like 2800? Really looking forward to your build on the above 996 lights!

It's a 95 LWB classic, I've always had one around, kinda of love hate relationship. This one is going to get a conversion at some soon point to a 680le and ls3 want to get it done before next winter.

Let me ask this, what LED headlights do you have in your RR?

Clear as a bell though which makes a HUGE difference!
