LED's last forever they usually have a 50k hr lifespan.

I have LED's in my Lincoln Navigator that I placed back in 2003 and till this very day I have yet to replace one.

I'm on my second set for the front DRL in the last 6 months and now need another. Some of the LED in the bulb are blinking and not working. The rear is working well since it's not on as often.

I guess its just the luck of the draw......

Have any of you ran these LED DRL's for some time? And if so, how long are they lasting...reason why I am asking is that I am getting tired of replacing those darn bulbs 4 or more times a year.

Cheers!

My reverse lights are still going strong but the DRL lasts about 3-4 months then some of the LEDs goes out but not entirely. Don't know why.

Says in the listing that they have a 90 warranty, why not send them back??

I go thes bulbs too and within 2 weeks they were flickering.
I contacted the supplier and they said reas the whole disclaimer before yoiu buy.
apparently they can burn out because there may be too much voltage. so they suggest putting in a resistor to prevent this..... to me they should inclue the damd resistor too and charge yo for it then you dont feel like a dick when yoiur lights are flashing.

Anyway they were mega bright soI will reorder and ge the resistrors and give yo an update and see if that works.

[Tex_h2]

These are Sh-t, blinkin and then when I pulled them out, they just fell apart into several pieces.

DON'T BUY!

I bought the PIAA 3157 bulbs and they match my HID lights pretty well and seem to be much brighter.

I went down to my local Auto parts store and bought a pair of Ultra White 3157 bulbs. They are a bit on the blue side compare to my Ultra White headlights, but...alot cheaper and easier to replace. The LED's where cool looking...but what a waste of money.....

Though I do have LED taillights ...and they are cool, hands down well worth the cash....
