You should see the rest of his car Anyway, New Kia Cerato 2.0 selling RM119k, 1.6l at RM100k. If the size is similiar to the Elantra, chances are the 1.6 will be underpowered
if you all wanna compare stock, compare with my car la dei. funker very happy liao. just this evening after wash car, went to fetch son at wangsa maju, found out left headlamp bulb kong.due to my self change bulb training previously, i manage to change the bulb myself.. and the cheapest i have bought, rm25. last time bought cheapjiang whatbrand bulb, now upgraded to Phillips cheapjiang one (philip premium h7 bulb). IINM, it's the 6th. time change bulb, 3 left, 3 right. according to my experiences, been bought at price rm25 (wangsa maju acc shop) , rm30 (keramat SC), rm35 & rm40 (setiawangsa acc. shop).
Use static towel wipe the glass area of the bulb, make sure it's finger print free before slot it in. If possible, buy cheapjing gourmet glove and use them while installation. Reason for often bulk KO as below:
1) Bad voltage supply, either sohigh or solow - Not your case, can burn 6 bulbs in 2 years if caused by current supplied, your car already caught on fire 2) Headlamp casing humidity beyond bulb surface area, unable to evaporate as quickly until glass crack - May not be your case, does the bulb crack? 3) Finger print left on the glass surface of the bulb, causes uneven heat distribution on the glass. Mild case heat disbursement compromised, overloaded the tungsten filament and snap. If serious, glass surface crack. - Highly likely your case
jsnkok, I used cheapjing H7 in my Iswaga since 2004. At night tracking event will change bulb put on yellow bulbs, and usually immediately change back to normal bulb the next day after event. Those cheapjing H7 remain their service tenure until 2009 right side burnt, changed 1 unit at my regular accessories shop for RM20, and lasted until I sold car last year September.

david, thanks for sharing. barring any material failure, bulbs should last longer than the service life of the car usually...
it could be just that the 1st bulb goes off due to that, and the replacement cheapjing bulb gone due to fingerprints as both had burnt tungsten.
Yes different type of drl hich i prefer thn those led type. Apa my car stock saja. Kua jiong. Haha, no choice coz they didnt produce 14cm liao. If u really wan thn i sacrifice mine for u lo. But u measure 1st li.
