** New Beetle Headlight Bulb Suggestions

Hi Folks,

Daughter has a 2001 NB, and seem to have the common problem of headlights
burning out. Just wondering if anyone has found a brand that may last longer.
I've tried the standard Sylvania H1-55W,and even the Sylvania Silverstar High
Output / High Dollar replacements and see no difference in longevity. Even
tied some no-name from Ebay , Chinese I believe, with the same results, next
step will be to disable the DRL and see if that helps. At least they are easy
to replace, but don't want to be doing it with the snowy months comming up.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Butch
