hey i installed my piaa yellow fog lights on my 06 coupe in the fall and tonight one of them are dead.. did any ones elses burn out that quick ? whats up wit that

 

I've had a bad experience with their headlight bulbs before. I made all the precautions not to touch the glass. About a little over a month, and bam!...lights out. I paid top dollar for them bulbs.

 

damm did uever go with another company ?

 

ive had my piaa plasma ion yellows for over 6 months without any problems...but i'll be switching to luminics when i get the time

 

+1 on luminics

 

Nah, i just ended up buying generic brand bulbs from ebay. They actually lasted a little longer than i thought they would....but those were back in the days.

 

Same here...lasted a couple of months before they blew....both of them....

first time i had a problem like that...i used piaa bulbs many times before.....

 

No problems out of my Piaa's yet. I first bought them in 04 and they have transfered to a few different cars.

I had a pair of eurodezigns go out in less than 24 hours.

Edit: before anyone says anything, I didn't touch the the lens at all. I handled them with a brand new microfiber cloth.

 

I had one bulb of a set of Luminics burn out after only a few months. I replaced em with another set of Luminics and havent had any problems as of yet. Knock on wood

 

It's also important that the bulb doesn't touch anything when you're maneuvering it into the socket.

 

Your right. Those bulbs didn't break the filament on both of them went out after about an hour or so of use. Being all the way in Japan, I really didn't feel like dealing with shipping again, so I gave up on that company.

I've worked with studio lighting so I know how sensitive the glass is.
