Yeah I have gone LED too. Just make sure you dont get the type with many LED chips, fewer is better. They need to be in a specific position within the bulb to match with the high and low elements in the factory bulbs. The pic OldBlue (need a username change?) posted shows the high and low positions.
Some manufacturers seem to have the high/low reversed, but still ok as long as you remember it.

I've done LED's in my last 3 cars. 2 had projectors and fantastic results. All in all after 4 years in the Elantra, had one high beam driver start to fail. In the Tucson, been great for 3 years.
I also did the Cobalt when I replaced the housings. Not as crisp as the projectors, but nice output. Those have been in for a year or so.

I hear you. I thought I was the only one that has a problem with headlight bulbs not lasting. I dont recall having this problem with any of my other cars. I generally bought bulbs locally, but with this Covid 19 pandemic, I decided to shop Amazon And now I see LED bulbs. Looks interesting, but some review had problems with the current draw being so low that the computer in the car detects a problem and the lights flicker. Soooooo just wanted to check to make sure they work in our beloved HHRs
I purchased a pair of LED bulbs awhile back - My intentions were to replace both with LED should one of the Sylvania bulbs go out again. Guess what? Both Sylvania bulbs are doing fine, for now! Go figure LOL

What bulbs are you using for the projectors?
