Does PIAA have a warranty on their bulbs?

Do you PIAA peeps know if they have a warranty on their bulbs? My passenger superwhite fog just blew out and it has only been installed for year. I know I did not touch the bulb with my fingers. For how much those things cost, they should last forever.

yes, PIAA have a fantastic warranty and are very good about honoring it. First, try taking it back to the place you bought it from, and go from there.

what kind of warranty do they have? Another of my 1100x's blew out this month, but it has been a few years.

Alright. You caught me. I am guily of laziness by not looking up the warranty.

The site says they don't warrant bulb failures though. Looks like I'm eating the cost of the bulb.

PIAA sent this back to me when I asked about a warranty on the bulbs since mine failed after one year:

"Our bulbs come with a one year warranty, so if your around the warranty
period you can return them to the place of purchase for a replacement.

Thank you,
PIAA Service"

I called my friend at his shop that I bought them at and he's going to get me a replacement. PIAA seems to have excellent customer service!!!
