which h7 bulbs last longest

[Dj_cElicA]

my nokya's lasted little over a year.. are there any other bulbs that look good and last longer?
can't afford HID's... so help me out

[6SPDGTS]

Phillips or Vision HID
then stock
all aftermarket ones burn out faster than stock

[SilverRide]

A year? That`s not too bad a service life. No headlight is going to last as long as stock.
Of course, it all depends on how much you use them.

I installed my "PIAA Xtreme white" H7s six months ago and they are still OK.
At least 50% of my driving is at night so this means that they are on at least 1/2 hour every night .
So, that would translate into 1 year if I rarely drove at night!

Point is, you will get various answers depending on the bulb`s usage

I am still having my Philips blue vision running. I had it for 1 and a half yrs. But I don't drive too much at night, just on the week-end.
I just order Philips Vision Plus (Being shipped from Europe, since no way I could get them in US). I heard it is very very bright!!!

The TRD Msports headlight??

And no, H7 does not mean projector housing. H7 is also used in reflector based housings. VW Golf (the newest one) uses H7 low beam AND high beam.

My Razo H7 Hyperwhites is still good, the last time I changed it was December 2000

[Pure Racer]

My Cuzo's lasted me two years... 14,000 miles...

[2kcelicaGT]

hyper industries, not that blue, just white, but i have had them over a year, no burn outs yet, Tim

[EndlessShock]

PIAA had them on since May 2001 and they are still OK...

[Grooverider]

i was just about to install some bulbs in my low beams cause im a cheap f*ck and i dont wanna get true HID yet cause i want a phat stereo system...anyway...wtf is that little bulb that is on when the low beams are on at night? what number is it? its like a little white bulb...like a 194 or something

[Sups]

if you can, i say save up for HIDs... but i know thats quite a bit, but they are brighter. i want to get a set when mine burns out

well i have hyper industries since march of 2001.. nothing yet, but i dont have a lot of miles on my car. no complaints from them so far

I believe the difference is their wattages. I think the correct one is 168 (higher wattage).

I have had my ion White bulbs in for over a year and a half and still no signs of fading or anything. (**knock on wood**)

The brand are Nokia H7 Ion White 100w
