How long do they last before they need to be replaced?

I have over 13K miles(in 2+ years) on my Silverstars. They kinda seem to be dimmer than before, but I'm not quite sure if they really are or if my headlights aren't aligned corrrectly. For those who have them, I was just wondering how long they have lasted until they begin to dim.

well I don't know the miles but I have had them in since about when I got my car in 03 I put them in, not sure if they are dimmer or not
 
ive had them in my other cars and IMO they do get dimmer over time. like when one gose out and you put a new one it its brighter than the old one. but wow mine have never lasted me more than a year before if even that.
 
They worked really well on my car, however on my buddies G35 coupe, one shat the bed like 2 months later..he was pissed..
 
I just put my PIAA's in.. so I hope they last longer than a year ... plus they are warranted anyways I think so I won't be that upset when they go out-- and they are way better than SilverStars... just a little more expensive
 
I've had silver highs in my lows for a while and they are fine but the ones in my highs seem to not throw as much light as they used to.. it's been like a few months.. maybe the weather??? or my lows are just so bright now that I feel that my highs are dim.. I dunno I'm not a genius
 
I've had Silverstars in my low beams for over a year and a half or so now and they seem to be holding up just fine. I haven't compared them to a car with newer ones in it yet, but I haven't noticed much of a diffrence if any thus far.
