I've got an Ovlov... with 199,700 miles on it, of which I've put 27k on in the last 20months. I've replaced my whole headlight units as the reflectors were yellowing, but I've not had to replace any main beam bulbs (I've had to replace a sidelight, but that's it)
The biggest bug bear that I have with these new DLR's is that they do not include rear lights, like Volvo and SAAB do; this means that the driver can 'see' where they're going, or be seen from in front, but if approached from the rear the car is invisible. Problem of silver cars not being visible in certain lights (I deliberately didn't get a car coloured in a silvery grey colour for that reason) is not alleviated.

Day running lights have been standard on Volvos since 1976, it used to annoy me that people kept on telling me that my lights were on. However they are very useful see & be seen for safety . Even now idiot motorists will not switch on their lights in dark or when its raining.

What are the rules for these LED lights in particular what shape can they be?
the Audi ones are obviously not round or straight.
Would it be possible, for instance, to have the LEDS in the shape of letters? Could see a whole new business in the letters C-H-A-V if so.
