Has anyone used these?..had any problems with them? i got them for christmas last year...and one just burnt out the other day....seemed a little to quick for me...since there like 24 bucks a pop..(canadian)...i tried to collect warranty on it (1 year) but its been..just OVER a year...so they wont cover a new one for me...i went ahead and bought another one...:o :o :no:

Ya know, I hear that a lot from people...that they dont last.
Ive had mine for like 2.5years and no issues at all. I even do a lot of night driving

2.5 years???? wow....thats a longg time...

[pdiggitydogg]

I know...Im expecting them to blow soon

i know my accord will burn the one on the passanger car and i noticed that is the same headlight that has the moisture in. i had them in the teg for over a year with no probs. knoks on wood.

I have them in my accord. I went through 3 sets (they were blowing in about a month) before I finally got to the ones I have now. Have had them for almost a year with no problems.

One thing you should do is go buy them at Wal-Mart and return the old ones.
When they kept blowing that’s what I did. I figured they are under warranty anyway let Wal-mart deal with them.

thats a good idea, surely it works because they don't check on shit.

Yeah, my silverstars lasted about one year. That's all they are designed to last, really. My headlights are on all the time, and they both blew pretty close to each other, time-wise.

It's hard to match the quality of those; I noticed a HUGE difference when I switched. I'm using sylvania cheapys now, and its a definate down-grade.

I dont have much look with aftermarket headlight bulbs lasting to long.. Its always the driver side that burns out.

I'm still running stock taillight/turn signals from 97 though!

i've had mine so long i forgot when i put them in.

sometimes your car is giving the bulb to much wattage. cuasing the bubls to burn up faster. just an idea.

i never own them but have thought about getting them. but now i cant. damn those JDM headlights.

They just burn out. There is a warning on the package stating that.
