Default halogen?

it "plug & play", assuming you can unplug OEM headlights. i broke stubborn left plug. city light is already pre-wired so you have nothing to worry about.

make sure you have all bulbs at hand. i have stealth bulbs as indicators (tried phillips & diadems, but stealth looks best). for city lights
i use PIAA, since OEM 5W is too yellow.

Default How long have you had the Stealths in?

I just bought a pair and someone told me that the silver (on the outside) wears off easily. You noticed this?

Default I've had mine in for since Nov. and there has been an ever...

so-slight degradation of the silver on the sides. Didn't really notice it though.

My inclination is that if you use the Stealths on eCodes, the corner turns will be on a fraction of the non-eCodes. They only flash when called upon as opposed to always on when called on for the non-ecodes (on & flash). Hence longer life and longer silver life.

Default Well, that's the thing...

I bought them for my CC mod. So I'll be using them all of the time in NA spec light housings. Oh well, they really weren't expensive.

Default My take is run'em till they die or become unsatifactory. They will replace them under...

there "lifetime" warranty...I've already had to call them out on this and it was NBD. Their service is awesome. For that warranty issue, they also threw in their Stealth side-marker bulbs for my troubles !!!
