I have the Narva 175, they cost only $130 through repco!
Land Rover use the same light just with their badge on it for there driving light kit. The wiring is a lot more robust with their setup, but it is the same light.
Very good value and compared with a mates Ralleye 2000. The are a fuller and clearer light with more range.
I asked a similar question a month ago!!!!

... and which vehicle is better?
... and which A/T tyre is better?
... and is a PTO winch better than an electric winch, better than a hand winch?

Boy Darren, what were you thinking?
Anyway, here's my 2 cents worth. There are good lights and better lights. There are no lights that make your lighting worse. Generally the better lights cost more than the good lights, but not always. So, be honest, what do you really need? A light that gives you improved visibility at moderate speeds in the outback/bush out to about 300 metres, or a light that will let you see a kilometre ahead at high speed highway cruising? Base you decision on the performance you really need, the frequency you'll really need it and the amount you are willing to spend. Then go shopping. When you do, spend a little extra on a high quality, heavy duty, wiring loom to get the most out of whatever light you choose. Good luck.
Be good, or be quick.
Rohan

True! Lightforce prove that money is not the key to preformance!
8 years ago I spent nearly $1000 on hellas, have not spent a cent on panel beating since. Prior to that $6000 to the panel beater. I believe that being able to see out 500m to 1000m makes all the diference to safe night driving. I will now never go back to mediaoker lights
My 2¢ worth
