head and fog lights

I got some xenon bulbs. The head lights last a long time, but I am going through fog light bulbs very fast. One set lasted about 3 months. I got a new set about 3 weeks ago and now 1 of those bulbs have burned out. I had my car checked, they said everything was working right. Do you all no what brand of head and fog light is a good brand. Also I need a drivers side fog light assembly. If anyone has one for sale let me know.

PIAA or Nokya

You can't go wrong with a Pair of PIAA bulbs for $65 or even a pair of NOKYA bulbs for $35 + or - ! Don't buy cheap ones at EBAY !

hey you are more than likely buying bulbs that are way over the wattage that your stock ones were. Now i'm not sure of the numbers but i think stock or like 55 watt and the ones on ebay are like 85 and 100 watts. Look for some that are 55 watt and you will be fine. I went to pairs of bulbs tryin to figure out what was wrong and finally i figured it out.
Hope that helps.

the fog lights are 35w stock, what ever you do DON'T get anything higher than 55w or else your foglight housing will be crack and worse your wires will be burn. also ebay is the last place to get those imatation bulb, its a waste of money. PIAA's or Polargs.
