H13 bulb replacement
Quick question: I just replaced my Xtra Visions with Silverstars, and I had TWO gaskets come off with each bulb when I removed them. Can anyone verify this?
the new bulbs have the ONE gasket attached...could I have left the original bulb's gasket in the housing when I replaced factory to Xtra Vision (ie-when I pulled out the factory bulb, I left the gasket on the back of the housing by accident and didn't realize it)
Or should there be TWO gaskets (one for the bulb, and one for the back of the housing).

Here's a pic of what was removed: you can see two separate gaskets from the gaskets that I put on the bulbs themselves (note, there are two bulbs, and two additional gaskets)

That's what I'm thinking too. But, I've had no issues with having two gaskets (had it like that for a year), except that it was a little harder to remove them just now, and to put the new ones on. I'm thinking about putting the second gasket back??? It seems "wrong" not to

I must have left the gaskets from the factory bulbs in when I put in the Xtra vision. But weird that I would have done it on both sides
