Okay, so i was at my friends house who lives an hour away, then when i was leaving i get in the car and start it as usual. When i turn on my headlights something weird happens. For some reason they are REALLY REALLY bright. A first i thought my highs were on but after a couple seconds both headlights blew at the same time. I thought it was a fuse that blew but when i checked both bulbs were bad. Now my question is WTF happened? I put my stock lights back in and they have been working fine for a couple of weeks now. The bulbs i had before were not some cheapo brand lights either. They were Koito Whitebeams and they were on my car for almost a year now.

Bulbs just blow sometimes... sucks that both at the same time... but it happens.

yea, seriously. things go wrong, stuff happens. just be glad all they did was blow and nothing else, like melt ur harness

bulbs dont get brighter before they blow. when a bulb usually blows its from some kind of surge (turning them on) or contact (jarring them). whatever caused them to burn brighter killed them. i have no idea what could have done it though.

must've been aliens.

... jk, perhaps something caused them to get hotter and hotter prematurely?

it was glowing really bright for only a couple of seconds
