One of my headlights is dimmer than the other and now emits redish light.

How long are these HID lights supposed to last?

Longer than the life of the car is what I've heard.

I'm going to ask Honda to replace it in that case.

....and the owner's manual tells you NOT to change them yourself because of the high voltage involved. Let the dealer fix it!

FYI, I just called a dealer (Planet Honda, Union NJ) and yes, it's a warranty item and they'll replace it. :-)
