3 in one day?

If they are halogens and you handled them improperly they will burn out very quickly! Halogens are very sensitive to fingerprints and oil/dirt on the bulbs. If you handle them with bare hands they will get hot spots and burn out within a few hours of burn time, I know from experience!! Just a thought.

yea i read that on the instructions
Is it common for them to only last a year? |
sounds as if there could be a problem with a ground
next time you are reinstalling the bulbs, try and clean the terminals a bit, they could be corroded |
We've had our car for 1 yr and 28k miles. I noticed one headlight was out. I removed the not functioning bulb and reinserted it into the socket and it worked... go figure. It now works. I happened to buy a set of spare bulbs for when these really stop working.
