One of my foggies is still going after a bird cracked the lens.EDIT: Biggest thing to remember is when switching over the bulbs (installing, getting out of packing etc) whatever you do dont touch the bulb as cleaning your oily thing print off is very hard and that will create a hotspot on the bulb and help it blow in a short time.
