Interior LED upgrades in the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque are one of the quicker cabin jobs. Nearly every fitting uses a small wedge (194 or T10) or a festoon bulb between 31 and 42 mm long; the code is printed on the metal cap of the existing bulb, and every kit worth buying lists its bulb code the same way. Pop one out first, read the code and buy to that.

CANbus sensitivity is the second question. This car is moderately CANbus-sensitive. The CANbus in these cars will occasionally throw a bulb-out warning after a straight-swap LED; CANbus-decoded bulbs remove the risk without adding cost of any consequence. A single CANbus-decoded bulb tested in the dome light before ordering a whole cabin kit is time well spent, especially on cars where a bulb-out warning triggers dashboard messages.

Colour temperature ties the whole cabin together. Around 4000-5000K neutral white is the sweet spot for reading a book, a map or a phone at a red light; 6000K daylight-white is brighter but harsher; 3000K warm-white can look right beside older interior trim but usually feels dim on cheaper bulbs. Pick one temperature and swap dome, map, vanity, boot and glovebox all at once so no fitting looks like the odd one out at night.
