Re: Headlight output degradadation over time?

Time does have an affect,

What exactly? How?

I guess I should have said vibration over time, presuming the car is driven but the headlights aren't used. If it just sits in a garage, then more or less indefinitely.

Yeah, vibration may have an effect, though I think in normal use its effect is probably negligible in properly designed and installed bulbs.

Can't speak for any other vehicles, but in my Bronco, over 13 years and 150k+ miles, I never had to replace any light bulb other than license plate light, in spite of that a good portion of those miles were night, or off-road driving,
