I think there was either a recall or a service bulletin on this for some EPs. Otherwise, you want a heavy duty headlight harness... it shouldn't cost more than $20
So after losing another headlight bulb (the third in six months, I wanna say), I've decided there has to be something wrong with a fuse or something that's causing this to happen. I THINK it's always the passenger's side, but honestly I don't remember. I'm just sick of buying replacements, and was wondering what kind of stuff I need to check.
Would a grounding kit help? I have some aftermarket stereo stuff. I could do the DIY.
Thanks.

if u touch it with ur oily fingers ... it'll die quicker
That too...
I'm not sure which is the good one though... Rich (02-sf-si or something like that with the Napolean Dynamite avy) was the one telling me that I should get these since I was having the same problem, but the guy he referred me to isn't making these anymore.

I know the info used to be here somewhere, but since the crash, I don't know if any of that is around anymore... I was actually hoping that one of the headlight gurus would jump in here and point the way.
The issue is usually just one side too btw (forgot which, but I think it was the battery side)...

Are you having any fogging issues with your headlights?
Silverstars?
Also, harness is sold here:

silverstars ftmfl.
for some reason, one side burns out more quickly than the other.
what bulbs are you using?
Yeah, that's why I had asked. I went through 2 sets of silverstars in less than a year. I used a clean cloth to install them and they still died. POS bulbs.

It's unfortunate becuase they worked well until they'd die. I think I ran PIAA's right before my OEM HID's.

It's not the bulbs... the H4 on my G lasts a lot longer than any H4 on my EP ever lasted... Even PIAAs and Raybrigs last me a long time now... Hell, I changed the PIAAs out after 3 months just because I wasn't used to having a set of bulbs for more than 2-3 months... that and the fact they were a little too blue for my liking...
I hope I don't jinx myself, but I'm still running my original oem bulbs from 2002 when I bought the car.
well, if you payed over $20 for a bulb, they're Silverstars, just get the regular halogen headlight bulb, should be around $8. They should have sylvania halogen bulbs next to the silverstars, last time I bought them they were in a purple box (silverstars are in a white box) and it advertises that the bulbs last twice as long.
