They may be running strong, but have they started to lose their intensity at all?

I think because it would be such a gradual process you many not easily identify it until they are nearing the end of their life span.

I've had mine 2 years and 2 months and while they still provide good lighting, I'm not sure they haven't lost a bit of intensity compared to say a year ago. Hard to prove as the process is so gradual, but that is my observation.

I usually notice if they do and mine are still running strong. We have DRL up here and I run the lights in the Auto mode which switches the headlights on when in gear. If the lights are poor ... I do notice.

phillips extremes for 2012

I installed a set of Phillips extremes in my 2012 screw and they burnt out my dimmer switch and the relay,, seems they put out to much power for this truck, I got all the info from this site about the Phillips extremes and after I installed them they worked for about 10 minutes, they did perform a lot better than the stock head lights for sure, but I am disappointed no one pointed out they would do any harm.. Does anybody have anything info about this,????
