QUOTE(winterwish @ Apr 20 2013, 01:33 PM) I just replaced mine few days ago (The Osram NB+).. I'm aware they have shorter lifespan compared to OEM bulb but 3 month?? Did you or the person installing the bulb accidently touch the glass bare handed? I was hoping it could last for at least a year.. Perhaps I accidentally touch the glass.. so is better to wear the glove during installing... The bulb still able to use after a month when i tried to plug in again, but the light become yellowish instead of having some white light...

Yeah, the oil on our finger can cause the glass to get really hot so a glove is recommended just in case. Hoping mine can last at least year.. RM80+ per set is not cheap. Huhu.

Indeed... quite hard to avoid for not touching the glass with bare hand. dude, kinda heart pain that i bought 2 set to change within 9 months. now have to get the 3rd set... zzzz. so you just change the head lamp? how about the side lamp and fog lamp?

Guys, I just did my service at Honda SC. They recommended that I use the 0W-20 engine oil as well as an engine flush. Since I am a light footer and my car's mileage is not that high. I decided to change to that. But how about engine flush? Is it necessary since I have not done that for my City.

depends le. sometimes u suay get wrong batch, sometimes the fella dunno how to install correctly (touch the glass with his fingers)
I'm on philips crystalvision. one bulb fused once. so had to buy another set. about RM180. Change my fogs to the same lights, RM190-210. see nego skills. haha
Good thing about philips, come with matching T10s.

Ya that's why need rubber glove  Just the head lamp for now, foglight still stock. I'll might change the side lamp with Philip brand later if got budget.

Maybe i should buy from another dealer in JB or just buy from SG in case it happens to same batch. Btw, I heard Osram for the fog quite easy to loose in connection. That's why i never install that. Philip nice huh? never try before. what's the price for whole set and any photo to share?

Crystal vision good? 1.5k with GPS can only get you some generic china brand I think.. the one similar to Caska. I think got someone selling in garage sales. I think better if you take proper double din player and use the centre console panel cover, it will sound much better than the generic china one. I'm actually planing on replacing the stock HU as well.. with proper double din player.. still doing my homework on it. haha If any of you already change their HU please drop by and comment..

H11. Yes a bit, cause need to remove the front banana leaf. lol i was doing some stuff to my car, and my bumper was already removed. so i just added the fog lamp. I find the projection ok. very good if on dark roads la. normal lit roads can't really see the beam. 1.5k a bit hard. 2k maybe can. Caska lor

Remember to select the correct colour for the faceplate.. cuz FL City has darker shade.. below is an example of pre FL using FL panel unit.. looks weird  For branded double din players, most that i survey cant support our AUX and USB/IPOD ... means if change to the double din proper ones, then the ori AUX and USB need to be sacrificed. Sounds abit wasted, luckily most can retain the steering volume control though. So do take note to get those that can use back our ori AUX n USB ..
