The 3157 DRL bulbs I am using now is the 2nd pair, first pair lasted 13-14 months. They are exactly same, except the first pair said XENON on packaging, the 2nd pair said the bulbs are painted blue, no mention of xenon gas or any gas anywhere. I have to guess that PhilD was right long ago, there is no xenon gas in the cheap bulbs. Personally I think they should keep up the false advertising with fake xenon gas claim on all packagings, I wouldn't know the difference and could be happier thinking they are xenon.

Which 3157's did you end up buying that were less blue than prplprowlr's???? Where did you buy them and how much were they??? I want to try a set of cheap 3157's before I go changing the whole fixture to a Cibie Tango or a PIAA 510 or the Lincoln Navigator Fogs... Please let me know.... I am very intersted in your bulb success.....
