For starters, some of you I know have yellow or inner burned headlight housings 93 thru 98 and if enough of us get involved and start shooting emails to the right person, we could possibly get a recall or at least make them produce some new housings (and HID bulbs) for us to buy at a cheaper rate. You never know what you might end up getting out of the deal but it's worth a shot to just try. I myself have clear housings because they were purchased in 04 and I got the car in 05 where it has been garage kept since then. I also have HID's and they don't produce hardly any heat at all. I don't drive much at night, rarely to be honest but people have lost their lives and injuries have occurred because of something that Sylvania made that sucked, especially for a $40,000 luxury car. I took the time today and sent the right person an email and just simply told them how I felt about making something so cheap and putting a high wattage bulb in such a small area, knowing that the reflective material would burn.
You people with factory HID's need to speak up about your bulbs that they made for your car and now no longer produce. It's not right that so much money was spent for these cars new and have one of the main things needed to drive at night become a hazard. What if you were the original owner of your car and you really did spend nearly $40K for it? Would you want to tell someone that you can't take your child to his night time ball game because you can't drive your car at night? Would you want to be driving yourself and others in your car during the night and go off the side of the road, simply because you can't see the edge? Maybe this will go nowhere and then again, it might bring back what many of us need, which are factory housings, OEM HID bulbs, well, you know what you need and don't need. It never hurts to try and it will only take a few minutes of your time to send this person an email. I put a lot of time into my email and I got a response. The email I sent is pretty long and I was being an a s s about it but I said what I felt. The email address is below and the response I got back is below that. Everyone get together on this and lets see what we can make happen.
