Boy the concept of LED's was awesome but in reality the only LED's that have never failed me are the sylvania expensivo's and the large scale LED's that Buggman puts on his 3rd brake lights. I can't get 6 months out of any other LED regardless of brand and are leaning toward going back 90% to filament bulbs which dim substantially over time but can last 25 years.


Anyone else arriving at that conclusion? I'm thinking it is the vibration of driving. LED's seem to last forever in stationary products like home receivers or mounted on the wall but in a car or truck? Losing faith real quickly I don't like having to pull my cluster every 6 months to replace the LED's.
