I have a 1992 Chevy sidestep. For the past two weeks my left headlight keeps busting the bulb. Iv never had this problem before and it's only in that one. Iv changed it at least 5 times now and have also changed plug. But yet after a few days of using my lights it's busted again and I don't know what else to do.

DURING INSTALLATION

HAVE YOU TOUCHED THE BULB WITH YOUR BARE FINGERS (USE GLOVES OR A PAPER TOWEL TO HANDLE THE BULB) OIL FROM YOUR SKIN WILL CAUSE IT TO BLOW!

IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE HEADLAMP HOUSING IS GETTING MOISTURE INSIDE - EVEN JUST A FOG?
