I bought H3's off of Ebay, a few months later they both blew. I emailed the seller, he said that he cant do anything about it, cuz its after one month. I would think they would have at least a 1 year warrenty

Did you touch the bulbs? You shouldn't touch the bulbs. You need to get good bulbs, or they are going to blow or, as in this case, not work at all. Phillips, Sylvania, Hella and PIAA are the best out there IMHO.

My 2¢

I had PIAA's in my fogs and one blew out after a little more than a year of use. They still replaced it for free for me. They're customer service is excellent! Now, I only use my fogs when I have to so that blowouts are less likely.
