My brother went to get his car oiled changed at a local auto repair shop. He decided to change his headlights to the xenon gas filled kind (9004 12v 100/80w) and asked the shop to do it for him (might as well, since he was there already).

What happened next is like a nightmare. The guy pulled out the lightbulbs with brute force and mashed his greasy fingers all over both the stock and the xenon bulbs. Then the guy [b]dropped both[b] stock bulbs onto the floor. The xenon lights are installed now but my brother is afraid they might pop.

And he can't replaced them with the stock bulbs because they were dropped on the floor and they both have fingerprints on them.

What to do?

no reason to panic. Get some rubbing alchol and wipe it clean. That's it.
