LED lighting on MINI Cooper D (R56)
MINI Cooper D (R56)
A MINI Cooper D converted entirely to LED lighting, both outside and in the cabin, with two additional round long-range headlights.
What we installed
- Low beams: high-performance LED bulbs
- High beams: high-performance LED bulbs
- Additional headlights: two round chrome long-range LED headlights, replacing the original additional headlights
- Reverse lights: LED bulbs
- Rear turn signals and side repeaters: LED bulbs
- Interior: LED dome light, glove box light and pedal area lighting
All the bulbs in this MINI have been replaced with LEDs. The two original additional headlights have been replaced with round chrome LED headlights that illuminate much farther ahead. The car gains a more modern look and offers significantly better visibility at night: the gain measured with a lux meter is detailed on the page.
The result
Low beam × 3.1
High beam × 2.0
10,504 lux High beam and additional LED headlights on together
Maximum light intensity, measured with a lux meter at 4 m.
