burned out another KC Daylighter...

I burned out the passenger side last spring. Now the driver side went about a week ago. this normal for them to burn out? I use them alot... even tho I live in the suburbs...

light bulbs burn out.....it might not be just burning out.....a lot of vibration can cause a bulb failure....

call KC, they have a 23 year warranty against everything....
