Mine lasted almost 18 months. To me, the extra light is worth replacing them at that interval.

Agree , the extra white light helps distinguish things ( deer , critters ) at night better than the factory bulbs . Ours just pooped out yesterday . The bitter cold seems to make them die . Have noticed that over the years of using the SILVERSTARS . I think these lasted nearly 18 months as well . Yesterday we picked up a new twin pack at WAL-MART for $29 and installed them in the parking lot in about 15 minutes for the '08 sedan that's a breeze compared to the L.B.. Will take a look at the SYLVANIA website for a printable REBATE which is normally $5 for the SILVERSTAR and $10 for ULTRA .
