How to get more light..

Hi all,
Now the dark times has arrived and when useing the main light I might as well add a candle in each corner of the hood.
There is nothing wrong but I need to get more light. Are there any better/stronger lamps out there?
I have searched for holder for extra lights in front of grille but have only seem an holder from Australia but seems to be much fuzz to get it to Sweden. I have seen another solution carving holes in grille to put light in but we use a winter and a summer grille here so...

The eyes of the old driver might be part of it but I have heard from other disco owners that light is not the best.
Elks are heavy and wantåo to avoid them... Laughing

By the way,anyone know of a good forum for defender? I have a issue with diesel pump on my old oneten.

Thanks.
Best regards Johnny

I know you said that you didn't want to cut your grill, but Lazer lamps make a fitting kit to fit their (expensive) lamps directly in the grill. https://www.lazerlamps.com/disco-4-2014-gr...n-kit.html

Prospeed make a set of brackets to mount these in front of the grill: http://prospeed-group.co.uk/product/discov...ht-mounts/

I bought some brackets and Lazer lamps from these guys: https://oem-plus-webshop.de/epages/346ef95.../D4FLlazer to have brackets behind the grill.

I bought a cheap-ish copy grill from PowerfulUK so that I didn't ruin my genuine one.

Otherwise, I think the standard LandRover spotlights mount on the bumper: https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-VPLAV0019

And for a Defender site, try the sister site www.defender2.net.

Have the brackets and Lazer R-750 Elite mounting kit from OEM Plus as well. I prefer the metal brackets to the solution by Prospeed where the lights are held by the front grill only. Photos of my installation can be found in my gallery.

Replace the original halogen high beam bulbs with Xenon retrofit. Very good improvement without any additional lights added.

I can honestly say that the best improvements to mine is using the below H7 light upgrade instead halogen bulbs and also get a set of Stedi Type X driving lights - you will never look back. I think i have already mentioned it on here but don't buy Chinease crap or cheap led light bars, they stop working before 12 months and the paint peels on them too.
