Next time, try putting the bulbs in without touching them with your bare
fingers, i.e.- put a cloth around the bulb while installing it, so that you
don't touch the glass.

I'm not sure if it will make a difference, but I know that on some expensive
light bulbs, they say to never touch the glass. If you leave fingerprints
on the glass, they can become etched into the glass, weaken it and cause
premature burn-out. Can't hurt to try using a cloth.......

<< I replaced my normal 9004 bulbs with 85watt lows100watt highs bulbs about
2
years ago; they only lasted about 3 months. I did love output and improved
visability of them. About 7-8 months ago I replaced my normal 9004's once
again to the 65lows/100 highs only to once again have them bust. Any idea
why
this is ocurring?? What is a good brand of these higher output bulbs?? Who
sells them? >>
