Anybody got any ideas for me on this one...
Over the last 6 months or so I have gone through 4 headlight bulbs 2 on each side. Now I don't know if they were a bad batch of bulbs from halfords (standards and 90% brighter types are the ones I have tried so far) or if there is something causing this on the car... I have had a look and cant see any moisture in the headlamps and after the second one blew I made special care not to touch the glass while fitting. Should I be looking for anything in particular? Could it be because I didn't change both at the same time, only changed the blown one?
Could it be a sticking relay putting a surge through to the bulbs every time its switched on? The original bulbs gave me about 4years life!
Am I expecting too much?
