I believe I have these on my S70 and they've lasted several years now with no visible clouding or any issues whatsoever. Good buy imo.

Pros: lasted several years, no clouding, no issues
Vehicle: Volvo S70

I think I got TYC housings from rock auto for about $300. No issues with aiming them and the cut off was much more clear than my faded oem lights. They came with bulbs but the headlights were really dim so I replaced them. At first had some moisture problems but that went away. Think they have capa certification also.

Pros: easy to aim, clear light cutoff
Cons: dim original bulbs, initial moisture
Vehicle: Honda Fit

If it's still functional, remove it, dry the interior carefull with a heat gun and apply a silicon clear sealant around the headlight-- where the black and clear plastic meet. Put everything back together.

Pros: silicon sealant fixed problem
Vehicle: BMW X3

TYC is perfectly acceptable. I will say I have used TYC stuff in other applications where the connectors felt a little cheaper than the Hella OE, and the fit was not quite 100%

Pros: perfectly acceptable
Cons: cheaper connectors, fit not 100%

I have TYC headlights on my P2. One of them hasn't got a perfect seal and is fogging up after carwashes so I drive a little bit with the lid off. I got it exchanged through warranty but the issue persisted and since the entire front has to come off, I've just decided to live with it. Otherwise they work as OEM

Pros: work as OEM
Cons: not perfect seal, fogging up, issue persisted

Don't get TYC. My beam pattern is poor, and I had cast metal parts inside the headlights get soft and bend from the heat.

Cons: poor beam pattern
