Ive had the ones from the previous owner for almost a year, with no problems, and I doubt he changed them in a while but frankly they suck at illumination.
I have heard that the Sylvania's are better at illumination, but I heard a lot of people saying that their life is less than good.
I just want to hear from people who actually own them themselves. Could you report on the life of these products and your overall satisfaction?

On my Stratus I run dual filament (hi&lo in one bulb) SS's. I also have wired in a bunch of relays that allow me to run the low and fogs like normal but when I put the highs on, the fogs and lows stay on, so I have both filaments burning at the same time whenver I have the highbeams on.
One of the low beams just popped this morning after about 18 months.
That being said, my 97 F150 has a set of SS's in the fog lamps that are at a minimum 6 years old and still going strong.

I don't like mine. They are dim. It's really gonna suck if they burn out in a year.

I hated the standard halogens in my XJ till I got them adjusted correctly now they're fine.
