Default Fog Lense Cracking

Its been some time now since installing the Silverstars " H10 = 9145 " bulbs and have only noticed the one has what looks like cracking from the inside. There is no chips on the front of it to cause this. I was told that they run just as hot as the stock bulbs, but we all know that the dealership isn't going to replace this due to having non oem bulbs installed. Unfortunatly the stock bulbs are out of state in a storage unit, so switching them prior to taking it in, is out of the question. Unless someone one here is willing to send me their stock ones?

Anyone else run into this?


Thanks

Same here i have an 06 tungsten and i also have those same hair like cracks and i anly have 5000 miles on the odometer. I placed that protective clear film to keep them from getting more crack. Let me know waht they tell you at the dealership. By the way i have the stock lights on my car and the same happened.

This would have to be covered then, since its very noticible that there are no chips on the front to cause this. The Silverstars run at 45W, where I believe the stock ones " 9145 GT " run the same.Maybe someone can clairfy?


Thanks

Thats great to hear, wonder what the'll say about mine with having Silverstars installed? No ones chimed in on whether they run hotter or not, which believe there the same from my research last year.


Thanks
