headlight longevity and cost

I've had one replaced around 4 years and the other 6 years. Cost was 74$ and 98$ CAD, how do they compare to your experience? Btw, this was just referring to DRLs.

One of my xenons lasted almost 9 years, do you replace both at the same time or just replace one at a time as they die? If the latter, how much longer did your other xenon last? Looking at CAD700 per xenon, this the ballpark price?

Do you bother w aftermkt or just go w OEM? Been replaced w OEM so far.

sorry for late reply. Have you fixed your issue ?

Always go OEM.
Don't replace both xenon at the same time. It's unnecessary. Make sure they have the same color though

Thanks, I got a much cheaper price online and went w that (OEM), decided to replace at same time since the color is slightly different.
