Cheapo Bulbs Can Melt Your Ignitor
For the life of me I couldnt figure out why my light output was so bad. I aimed them, baked and cleaned the headlights to no avail. I did notice there were some off brand bulbs in there but I paid them no mind.......until I decided to get some Osrams. This is what I found..cell phone pics sorry
The damn bulbs melted into my ignitor WTF? I had to break the area melted together to get them out. The suprising thing was that the ignitor worked and still is (until I replace it.) Also the output has greatly improved with a set of used Osram 66040s. Dont cheap out on your bulbs people. Thats my PSA for today

Seems like a worthy merge.
