Not the bulbs themselves in my experience, but the the reflectors can become cloudy and plastic lenses get foggy from sun damage.

The cloudy reflectors haven't been worth worrying about, but the fogged lenses seriously deminish performance and can be cleared up with plastics polish.

The fact that you got better performance from new bulbs could mean otherwise or the new bulbs are of higher output.

Best wishes, Craig
