A few months ago, maybe as much as 4 months, one of my headlights on my new (used) car went out. No big deal, I'll just get replacements. Being a new car, and not knowing how old the lights were, I decided to replace both of them so that I can know the history of the parts. So I went to an online forum for my car to find out recommendations on lights. After a bunch of research, I decided to buy the Sylvania Xtravision bulbs. I've had the Silverstar lights before and didn't really care for them, but hoped that these would perform better, and they did, so I didn't complain.
Two days ago, one of my buddies told me that one of my bulbs was burned out. I haven't been driving much after dark lately and I have daytime running lights so that's how he noticed and I didn't. So I replaced the bulb, while being mildly annoyed that I seem to have the same problem as the Silverstars. Now this morning, I saw my lights flicker a little bit after starting my car. I checked my headlights and sure enough, the other bulb burned out. WTF? Seriously? Can sylvania make a decent headlight bulb?
So the point of the story, can anyone make a decent recommendation on a quality headlight bulb? I don't mind paying a little extra if I know that I won't have to bother with it for a while.
