Damn aftermarket bulbs
Just noticed that one of my $60/pair Razo low beam bulbs burned out. What the f&$#
I've only had them for like 5 months. Is that normal? How long do the Polarg's last?

Polarg is avery good way to go. Brightness is great, as well as good HID like color. They also come with a lifetime warranty. I have had my current pair in for almost a year now and I love them. And trust me, I have tried everything. They come in two colors... Miracle White=Lexus like color, or VIP Purple, BMW Purple like color. Oh and by the way guys, putting dialectic connector grease on the bulb connectors as well as the socket prior to install makes like a 3000% difference in life of the bulb... I dunno how many times I have said that on here.

Dialectic Connector Grease can be found at any car parts store or any place like WalMart. It prevents corrosion and moisture build up in the connection, and thereby increasing bulb life. Make sure that you never allow the bulb itself to come into contact with anything, especially your fingers. The oil from your hands will heat up and possibly cause the bulb to explode. Polargs are kinda tough to find, only certain places can get a hold of them. I know the Midwest Distributer for Polarg and Nokya, so I can get them for you. If interested, Email me at DKMotorsports@hotmail.com.
