    Blue bulbs keep burning out

    Hey, blue bulbs keep burning out in my 92 Lx. Is it a short somewhere? Or is it cause i got the bulbs off ebay? they are cheaper. Both the regulars and the brights burn out. Takes about maybe 5 months. Have any suggestions for me? Thanks.

    cheap shit...go to walmart and get some super blues, they will shine white, do the 9006 conversion and your set.
    What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

    You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

    Retro!

              I've heard that its possible to have a short in the wires or something. Maybe ill try the silverstars and if they dont work then ill say screw it. Thanks for the input.

                Dont waste the money, just save up for a good HID kit.

                    Now theres a thought I went and brought some bulbs from arch auito parts havent failed me since. When you put the bulbs in the socket use some gloves or a piece of tissue to make sure that you dont shorten the life of the bulb with your grase from your hands.
