Have had good results in the past baking headlights in oven to remove clear front plastic to modify internals. Bake again to reseal + add some silicone. Not done Land Rover ones though.

looking at the picture it would seem you have bought a 2013-2014 spec headlight with the clear background and also a 2015 spec headlight with the black background.

agree with last post. MY2015 SE, SE tech and Metropolis all got black reflectors in a bid to modernise the look- which worked in my opinion. can't see exactly from your photo but i think the black version also has the signature strip ? ( thin strip of LED daytime running lights round the headlight. the earlier clear version looks not to have this strip? are they both halogen units- can't read the identifying label? all Metropolis are black reflector with HID.

Yes they are halogens. I bought and adopter from ebay £240. Felt like someone stabbed me in the heart after I clicked “Buy Now” but they are worth it.
