sharkcohen · 04-24-2002, 02:11 AM

And THAT is why I refuse to spend 70+ on a bulb.

DYI01 · 04-24-2002, 09:07 AM

Hyojiggy · 04-24-2002, 04:58 PM

wow... first time hearing PIAA burning out...

00prelude_tx · 04-24-2002, 05:27 PM

Mine did that also. The passenger one went out. I got tired of buying them at $70 dollars a pop, so I just went ahead and got the HID. Dont have to worry about them going out. Plus youll spend that much in 4-5 pair of PIAA. HID will out last all of them.

ElectronBlueSH · 04-24-2002, 06:00 PM

how long was it before it burnt out?

00prelude_tx · 04-25-2002, 08:03 AM

3 months. and I did not touch the bulb. I have done this many times. I know what I am doing. $70 is too much to keep spending on something that can burn out any day.
GET THE HID

cybercrx00 · 04-25-2002, 08:35 AM

I had the PIAA platinums for over a year, then sold the car, and as far as I know, they are still going.

polorl57 · 04-25-2002, 12:56 PM

y does this have to happen to me???? oh man...i cant even get another pair right now...im in the process of gettin the azect front lip...i really have no money right now

I might have an extra one lying around. No guarentees though. Also, it's a few years old, cause that's when same thing happened to me. Since then I only believe in Philips Vision Plus.

I'll email you if I find it.

polorl57 · 04-26-2002, 11:30 AM

ALRIGHT JKO!!! good looking out...yea please email me if u find it!!! thanks alot

JRAMONE · 04-26-2002, 11:55 AM
