Blown Cuzo
Yea so I was drivin down a perfectly straight road bout 30 mins ago when one of my cuzos like flashed
red & went out. I pulled into a gas station & I see that the whole bulb exploded & shot broken glass
all over my headlight assembly[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] I just put these in like 2 weeks ago & I didnt touch the bulb putting
it in, I made sure of it. Anybody had this happen, this really pisses me off. I think it was defective in
some way, anybody had their cuzos replaced, are they pretty good about that? I love these
headlights but I dont want to have to buy new ones. On top of that i have to take my headlight
assembly out to get all the freakin glass out[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG], I guess its time to clear those babies out[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG].

I just bid for some mtecs on ebay just a few hours ago, and I just got a notification that I won...
I went for the go because I heard it was pretty good and will last long

This happened to my friend's 02 Accord... Clear the broken pieces before you install a new bulb, or else the broken pieces will MELT to the chrome stuff.
