Has anyone else had bad luck with the head lights on a TA or Firebird? I noticed this morning that I have another one burned out. This makes 4 in 3 years. I've tried Sylvania and GE lights and they seem to be about the same. Is it just me, or do the small head lights in these cars just not last very long? I gues I'm just trying to see if there is a problem with my car or if it's a common thing.

I must have been a real site driving home last night. I thought I'd be smart by running the fog lights since one of the headlights was out. The parking garage at work has windows in it and at night you can see your reflection as you drive down. I noticed that the right fog light was also burned out. So I drove home with the left fog light and right headlight. I stopped bought 2 new headlights and 2 new fog lights and now everything works again.

BTW, they now have the Silverstar lights for the fogs but still nothing for the headlights. At least, that the first time I'd seen them. I adjusted the fog light aim a bit as well and now they are almost as good as the regular low beams.
