That's not good!
I got my initial 55w kit off ebay, i do 180 miles a day, headlights always on, and they've lasted around two years.
I've had one bulb go s o got the replacement off hid direct, but they all appear new :-/
Hopefully it's just a picking error...
Get it sorted cus hids are the way forward! You can see better, people usually see you lol, and they last ages. Before hids I was replacing headlights every month at £25 per bulb, well a little cheaper as I got my halfords discount lol :D

They sending me some replacement bulbs, no quibble. Fair play to em atleast. i guess thats WHY i didnt buy from ebay, could have been a different story i guess.

I have the ultra bright Halfords ones in atm, we did some training thing at work where we let staff fit bulbs, and the company let us sell the bulbs to our staff cars at £5 each, so i got the ultras in hi's and Low's.

That's a good deal for the ultra bulbs and at least they are replacing them no quibble!

I've also got a 55w kit and I think they are ace, brighter than some OEM Bi-Xenons fitted to modern cars :)

Can't wait until I've got some time off in March to fit these projector units. Hopefully they will give me a nice clean cutoff and super bright main and dipped beams. I'll update progress in my RR ;)
