... cut from ebay

How long will they last?

The international standard life span of ordinary halogen bulbs are 150 hours. HELLA/OSRAM High Intensity Discharge Bulbs will last 10 times longer than ordinary halogen bulbs. That's longer than the life of most vehicles!


In the ebay page, it shows 150 hours of life on the HIDs.
that's only 6 days of 24 hour use or three months of use for me since I drive with my lights on in the morn and eve about 2 hours a day for 75 days.


Are you the seller? If so can you confirm if 150 hours is correct?
It seems low for the life of those bulbs.

Also if it's a direct fit like removing bulbs and replacing like the Phillips.

Thanks,
Mola

HID bulbs last alot longer than 150 hours. I've been told they last about 2000-2500 hours. I love HIDs. They change the whole car at night.
