PIAA Warrenty???

Hey Guys.

About 6-7 months ago I bought PIAA H4 Plasma Blue head light bulbs. I just noticed that 2 nights ago, 1 of them burned out.

Does anyone know of a warrenty on this that PIAA offers?

Thanks.

I believe there is some warranty information on their website. I looked into it before, over a year ago, because just about all of my PIAA lights went out at the 6~8 month mark and I wanted something done about it. The general rule is lights burn out and/or you screwed it up at installation time, neither of which are acceptable answers.

Good luck pursuing the warranty approach but chances are you'll end up right where you are.

But $100 lights SHOULD NOT burn out in a 6-7 mo. time range!
