Heon Xenomatch/ HID fog lights...

Back in September I bought a pair of Hoen Xenomatch H3 fog light bulbs. For 40 bucks I thought they looked pretty good and matched my headlights a lot better than the stock bulbs.

A week and a half ago the drivers side puked. I emailed Hoen and they sent a replacement, took a little over a week to receive. I installed it yesterday.

Last night I noticed that the new bulb was quite a bit brighter than the other one.

Today the passenger side quit. Is 3-4 months the life expectancy of an H3 bulb? I have read quite a few posts on the subject.

I think I am going to upgrade to HID fogs. Seems the price has come down a bit.

In Twinspoppa's post PhillyX 5 mentioned these http://hidny.com/product.sc?categoryId=37&productId=86

Has anyone else tried them? Are they really P & P? I am not to keen on splicing. Seems Twins had a wrestling match with a cheaper set from DDM.

Any input appreciated!
