I've just had my third headlamp bulb fail (same side) in as many months; this one lasted a week, purely by not driving the car... I'm not touching the bulb with my fingers when fitting. Bought the bulbs from eBay - two different batches, two different dealers. But I guess they're cheap as chips (first pair of bulbs cost a fiver; second pair was £1.50... I don't doubt they're out of a similar Chinese factory.)
Should I be buying better bulbs? If so, from where?
On the plus side, I'm getting good at changing the bulbs and can do it in only a couple of minutes now; first time it took me nearly an hour...
