I had some cool blues (the line under the silverstars) that lastest over a year.....but I also probably prematurely burnt those out from running 9005s in 9006s sockets ;o)

I had some of those cool blue headlights for a while, and the damn things burned out like every month :madfawk: So I said **** that shit, and put the stock bulbs back in.

That was in my old car. It had severe issues anyways. hehe I think stock looks cleaner anyways. For me it's either HID or stock from now on.

who knows, maybe it was the harness. i'm glad my cool blues are holding up. to each his own! i can't get hids yet. gotta get the blackhousing depos first. hehehee...... no diy for me. my diy clear depos don't fit "perfectly", so i might as well get the depo headlights and everything. plus i won't have nipples on the headlights anymore. haha
