Ok.. im thinking my headlight is going one.. or one of them at least. I would be driving and my light would just start to flicker, and plus both of them are really dull already....... not bright at all i drive with my high beams on.. ha. Well want to replace them but i been seeing that i have to replace the whole headlight housing right? i just cant replace the bulb? If so is there a pair of housings that i can buy that would allow me to just replace the bulb when needed? Im looking into just getting some replacement sylvania ultra bulbs nothing special just a little bit more light then just replacements

get the bosch h4 conversion kit. but it sounds like you might have f***ed up wiring though and not just headlight problems

well i thought that it could of been a short but could not find anything.. when i start the car 3/5 times one of the light dont turn on.. i need to get out the car and eather hit it or move around the plug thats n the back.. so im just getting tired of it.. might as well replace both of them since one of them is considerably more duller then the other one
