I started developing this strange knocking noise in the rear, somehow the two bolts for the rear strut came loose and the center nut didn't look far enough down, no threads on the shaft showing at all. So I took the fucking thing out and the center nut definitely went down a few threads so I thought I was good but I went to drive it and it was still making noise, then discovered it was the fucking link which took about 2 minutes.

couple of people have, but then you run into the headaches of mounting and such, along with some wiring

housings ARE NOT designed for 55w bulbs, and it will eith destroy the chrome on the reflector, or melt the housing


as far as different brands of ballasts, yeah...... that's why i just got an OEM ballast when mine went out , have not had an issue for 28k miles, and even then the original one lasted 100k

So far the sylvania bulbs have been good in the rain and snow for me they're just a little bit yellow when fully warmed up though.
