Cheap Xenon lights???
Anybody ever bought any of the cheap replacement Xenon foglights oiff ebay? I know you usually get what you pay for, but is there a real danger of these el-cheapos cooking the electrical system, or do they just not work very well? Just curious.

Save your money and buy Silverstars by Sylvania or TruView by Wagner

another thing to consider if you are going to bright light......is aftermarket driving lights!

Im a big fan of the silverstars performance but Ive been seeing that they dont have the longevity that other bulbs have. between me and my cousin we put silverstars in 5 vehicles and every one of them burnt out in less than a year.
