I saw someone on eBay selling instructions on how to retrofit. I can't vouch for them, but I have heard of it being done in other circles. You have to do a bit of modification (cutting, etc.), so it's not for the faint of heart.

yeah you can do it, it may look a bit out of place with the old-style bumper though, but hey, go for it

Save your time/money...It looks retarded.

If you want a brighter headlight, just get the kit Hella makes. It consist of new bulbs and a new wiring harness, at about 150.00. And it's really a "night and day" difference!

I was wondering the same thing. The 04 disco lights look pretty cool and does anyone know how to put them on a 00 disco?

the ebay kit you are talking about should do the trick. I emailed the user selling the kit and he wanted $49 on how to convert the 2000-2002 Discovery headlights to the 2003+ Headlights. I was going to do it, but I was afraid of it being a joke and costing more in the long run than it would be worth. Instead I purchase the PIAA Super Plasma-X headlights and they are awesome.

u can do it for a change, and for some customization of your vehicle..but if you want some assurance that you can install them without damaging your auto, try consulting some professionals that works on headlights.ask some help from them so you can even do it yourself.. thats a nice idea i bet... or try lookin' for somethin' outta here at Replacement Xenon Headlights
