i got a 98 prelude and my right headlight goes out. this is right after i bought brand new bulbs for that headlight after (only) the right headlight went out. im bought sylvania silverstars and they burnt out. i also have aftermarket wedge light if that helps. i dont know why only the right one burns out, and only after a month. someone help! would buying oem help? or is this irrelevant to the bulb?

problem right there. I remeber reading that they dont last very long. Oem would last longer. Oh yea, dont get your finger oils on the bulb when changing them

 

Are you installing it properly?

Cause if you touch it with your fingers, then they'll break faster, or they won't even work at all. Make sure you're wearing rubber gloves when you install

 

dont sylvania silverstars just burn out quicker in general? i just told him to not touch the bulb (which im sure he didnt) becuase he might of forgotten.

 

he didnt touch it. we're wondering more or less if that is related to wiring problems or such. like maybe too much power? or something along those lines
