Upgrading Headlights Peugeot Boxer?

[Philip M]

Hi Folks,
Has anyone upgraded their headlights to LED's or Xenon lights? If so what tips or recommendations do you have?
The headlights on our 2017 Bailey on a Boxer Cab, seem really dull when compared to the Xenon lights on my E Class estate which has the self dipping / going round corners function.
Looking forward to your feedback.
Thanks Philip

Interested, what van have you fitted them to? How long have you had them? Do they make a noise, read they have a cooling fan? Thanks

I fitted some today, the original one has a rubber seal on the back of the light unit(Hella) that I couldn't fit back as the fan sticks out too far so I've wedged that in. In daylight the difference is obvious, going out Friday in the dark so will see if better and I'm not blinding anyone.

The lens on the light is sort of opaque and not clear (the main beam is clear) so I'm thinking maybe there's no beam pattern.

I just swapped to these Night breakers, took 10 mins a side, put's out extra 200% light (Dipped only) cost me £22 from Euro car parts, and gives me a pair of emergency back up bulbs !
More than adequate considering how often I use them

The night breakers perform well but they only have a short life compared to standard bulbs. Worth the sacrifice I think.

Yes I'm pleased with them so far, considering how often I use them may last a couple year's, will see how they go, as easy enough swap back if they blow !

I believe that the 200% brighter claim is 200% brighter than the legal minimum of 30 Watts

I've fitted night breakers to all my vehicles, to be fair the 2003 Ducato standard headlights were the best oem ones I've owned.
In my life i've driven with led, xenon, halogen, candle and 6v but dont really see a massive 'oh my God' type difference between them (apart from the 6v), maybe because I used to drive trucks 24/7 ‍♂
