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

OEM Volkswagen Headlights

In my case, about 1/2 to 3/4 CCW turn with philips screwdriver did the trick - now headlights aim just a little higher on each side… Importantly, I am not getting flashed by oncoming drivers while using the low-beam headlights.

Pros: headlights aim higher
Cons: initially aimed low
Vehicle: Volkswagen

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%

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

it's been driving me nuts that I've been getting condensation only in my passenger side headlight. They're brand new TYC aftermarket headlights and I have another friend with the same exact issue. Same brand, same side.

It's not leaking or anything. Just your typical condensation that doesn't go away lol. I've checked the breather valve (valve for venting the heat) and while it looks identical to the driver side, the holes are pretty small. I'm guessing it's not enough for the hot air to vent out, hence the condensation.

Cons: condensation, small breather holes
