Mine seemed to both crap out with the temperature drop. Anyone replace these yet? Which aftermarket brand is good?

Second the SACHS brand, OEM supplier to Ford for a long time.  This is based on trying out many brands for the hatch lifts on the Edge.  Still want to try out the AMS product, and wish Redline Tuning would make 'em ...
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

When I changed them, one side was obviously blown. These snapped in perfect. Trunk can be opened with 1 finger now. Thanks guys!

I replaced both on the hood of my wife's '14 SEL at only 18,000 miles, took it back to the dealer a couple of days after we bought it.  Replaced one on my trunk at about 45,000 miles.
All Silver(er)SHO.  2012, every option with PP running new Firehawk Indy 500's.
