I saw a remark on another automotive forum about the life of a Xenon bulb.
Allegedly, someone mentioned "the Xenon bulb should last the life of your car".
Now, I've read some comments about having to be very careful when fitting a Xenon bulb, i.e. wear special gloves, never touch the bulb with your bare hands (the grease will kill the bulb prematurely), etc...
But does anyone have a 'general' idea of how long the Bi-Xenon's should last in the SLK (or Xenon's in general...).
Are their functional life cycle a year, a few years, or a dozen?
