Auxito LED don't last, stay clear.
I've suggested their product earlier so feel like I'm obligated to give update as I go.
Purchased & installed their H11 bulbs for my low beam in March, 2023. noticed driver side was dim compared to passenger side when stopped behind white cars in a red light, at the time I thought it's just the driver side (a one off) and went ahead and purchased a new pair on amazon. After the new pair arrived, I've replaced the driver side, then realized that now the passenger side is dim. lol took a closer look and the passenger side has half burned out too.
Note the low beams are also DRLs so they got used whenever the vehicle is on. but DRL is like half power and should not LED's life. i.e. LED last very long in half power mode. I've got about 600+ engine hours so the light lasted 600 hours give or take. that is far from the so claimed 50,000 hour.
Since I've already bought another pair and put them on now, I'll see how long does the new pair last but if anyone have experience of other brand that lasted longer than 2 years and still going strong, I'd like to hear.
Cheers

Running Sealights that are at least 5 years old. Some people don't like them but it's pretty hard to beat the value. Just make sure they are properly aimed.

I recently bought a set of Sealights and one was bad right out of the box. They send me a replacement for free, actually a full set of four, so not sure of the long term quality yet.

I have the f150leds for about a year now no problems yet. I do have the ones you have on my 07 Silverado classic for about 6 months. So far no problems but I will let you know if the die soon. Hopefully this is not the norm. Sorry to hear about your problems with auxito. Hopefully they will take care of you.

Just swap lamp to quad LEDs. Halogens don't provide the proper light spread fed by LEDs. That looks horrible. You're leaving a lot of visibility on the table using ill-suited illumination.
