Please update this around Dec 2011 time frame. I purchased from PowerBulb UK and selected their own brand because it had better life than Philips Extreme. Unfortunately, they died in less than 9 month on both of my vehicles. Currently, I am running 10 year OEM bulb in each car along with the "yet-to-be-burnt-out" PowerBulb. Yes, PowerBulb is better but less than 9 months life is not acceptable to me.

Unfortunately the price for all the extra performance will be lifespan.

Due to replace them? What do you have a 1 year HCI (headlight change interval).

Saw a you tube video on those bulbs. Pretty cool.
