About DefenderDRL

Who We Are

DefenderDRL was founded to solve a common and frustrating problem for Land Rover Defender L663 owners: failing DRL halo lights. The fault is widespread, and the dealer solution — replacing the entire headlight unit at £2,000 or more per side — is unnecessarily expensive when the root cause is a faulty LED board inside the unit.

We developed a specialist repair process that addresses the fault at component level: opening the sealed headlight, repairing or replacing the DRL PCB, resealing to factory standards, and thoroughly testing before return. This gives Defender owners a fast, affordable alternative to full headlight replacement.

Our Expertise

Our technicians have deep experience with the Defender L663 headlight system. We understand the common failure points in both matrix and standard LED units, and we've developed proven repair processes for the DRL LED boards that are at the root of most halo light faults.

Because we focus exclusively on this repair, we can offer consistent quality, fast turnaround times, and competitive pricing that a general garage or dealer cannot match.

How We Work

We offer two service options to suit every Defender owner:

• Mobile repair and fitting (from £400) — we travel to your location anywhere in the UK. Headlight removal, repair, resealing, and refitting are all included.
• Postal repair (from £300) — send us your headlight unit and we return it repaired within 3 working days. Ideal if you or your garage can handle removal and refitting.
