Sup people. Have any of you w/ projectors that have changed the H3 bulbs in there to the Super White, Plasma, or Xenon bulbs had any problems with them? Mine burn out after about a month of use. I've changed them a couple of times...and NO I dont touch the bulbs with my fingers. Any comments?....:confused:

What brand bulb you sing? If they blow out in a month than they must not be quality bulbs..try using PIAA or Raybrig you might have to pay a little more, but they make quality bulbs that will last longer than a month :bandit:

I had the same problem with my projectors ... any brand of bulb I put in it would last about a month ... I'm guessing it's producing too much heat inside the projector so I decided to go back to my stock headlights ...

I had that problem too....when i put my projectors on my 00 accord, i went through about 3 pairs of MATRIX bulbs in about 3-4 months, it was weird only one bulb would blow out....figured it was my housings, but i put in a set of STREETGLOWs about 2-3 months ago and they are doing perfect, look really good too....try those..they were about $25, alot cheaper than the MATRIX ones
