Original Manufacturer of spot lamp xqb500080 |
|
does anyone know who is the original manufacturer of lamp in this set ?
Tried to search, but without any success - thought Hella, but they do not have any similar ones.
one was broken and would like to buy only one lamp - not the complete set again.

Hi grob1971
Don't know if this helps at all but I came across these lamps while browsing JLR classic parts department.
https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/xqb500080-spotlamp.html
Seems like they sell them as individuals and not by set although quite pricey!
IIRC island4x4 had them as well but not sure now.
Manufacturer is not specified anywhere though Discovery 3, TDV6, HSE, 2006

many thanks for the hints - this is a complete set. in the meantime i could buy this complete set.
Also, i could identify the original manufacturer. it was Reed Automotive England, unfortunately this business got closed a couple of years ago - they manufactured the lamps, some plastic components, while the cable set was manufactured by XJ Electronics - this business was closed as well.
I also made some investigations on spot lamps and for Disco 4 the similar spot lamps were sourced from PIAA (Japanese manufacturer)

Good research!
The cost effective way is to buy good second hand units - I found a pair recently through this very site 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!
