Anyone have a problem with them burning out quicker than normal head lights? :painting:

True that.. First time I bought my solara, I bought two blue bulbs for $20 and it freaking blew out on me in 2 months. I changed it to Silverstar and it lasted well over a year and it looks pretty darn nice too. Silverstars cost between 30 to 40 bucks.

theres no comparison. For the money ive spent on PIAA"s and Silverstars which always burnt out one bulb at a time on me I could have gotten HIDs. The fake HID's look nice but cant compare to the real thing. PIAAs run at 100 a set and silver stars at 40. Why not just get the HIDs for 400? Its cheaper in the long run and you'd be happy with it. With the PIAAs or silverstars you would never be truly satisfied.
