No idea how old the bulbs are. I have had the car for almost 4 years and never changed them. I'll replace them like you said and clean the lenses thanks.

That & wash the lenses real good. Even get some plastic polish & polishing up the outside can help greatly.
There is a halogen replacement with a 1156 base for back-up light use. I don't about putting a halogen bulb in a plastic enclosure with a plastic reflector, to me they might just get a little too warm.
i have the halogen 1156 reverse lights. i replaced both of them with the halogen bulbs. big difference- they're very bright. no problems- i've had them in for over a year and a half. i think it's worth it...i paid $10 per bulb.
LG4 305ci 4bbl motor, 2.5" Cherry Bomb Extreme muffler- side exit exhaust, Cragar 15x7 Black D Window wheels (4" backspacing), Cooper Cobra Radial GT tires (P235/60R15), 36mm hollow front sway bar with wonder bar, 24mm rear sway bar, Energy Suspension endlinks and Guldstrand bushings, Edelbrock Elite 4222 air cleaner with K&N filter, FF Dynamics 16" Cyclone electric fan, Flex-a-lite Variable Speed Fan Controller, custom fixed headlight conversion with 5000K HIDs and Silverstar Ultra H7 bulbs, Pilot PL-362W driving lights with Hella 100W H3 bulbs, Deka Intimidator 9A78DT AGM battery
there is also a 1156 style (not called a 1156 but it has an 1156 base) but its an incadesant 50w (its made for old school fog lights) but they are cheap and work great, i got them in my back ups and my under hood light (BTW i need a new underhood light socket and base )
advance, autozone, peps and all should have them, you have to have a real knowageable sales person or look where the fog lights are (not where replacement bulbs are normaly)
