plunk10 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 One of my headlights blew out, and I noticed that some folks on here had them covered under warranty. Furthermore I've heard you can get wiper blades replaced under warranty too. If that is true, go Subaru! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John M Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Why would you want one cheap bulb replaced with another? Spend the money and buy bulbs you know will last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc51373 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Ys the bulbs are covered. Unplug your DRL's and you won't have to replace them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boostsr20 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 If you do buy any other bulbs, Stay away from Silverstars like they are the Plague. They go out freakishly fast. Personally I'd drop the 285 and get the HID kit. Simple install and MUCH improved lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc51373 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 What is the best/mostpopular HID kit for the Legacy? Is it plug and play? And does it look factory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyh Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 If you do buy any other bulbs, Stay away from Silverstars like they are the Plague. They go out freakishly fast. Personally I'd drop the 285 and get the HID kit. Simple install and MUCH improved lighting. I've had Silverstars in both my SC2 and my LGT. The SC2's haven't been replaced in in 25k, but the LGT's were replaced, under warranty, in less then 7K. At this point I'll just keep getting them replaced under warranty until that runs out, then I'll think about other options.

giotein Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 What is the best/mostpopular HID kit for the Legacy? Is it plug and play? And does it look factory? I have BrightStar and it is plug and play. they are popular among my friends? on this site? probaby not so popular... but i personally think that HIDs are to the owners eye. they can look nice to one person... and someone else may say they are too white.. blue.. purple... and it would probably depend on your spending budget to...

LegacyGT 05 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 The problem, which is commented on everytime something like this comes up, is the DRLs. Personally I prefer the DRLs in general, however, since they use the lows at about 70% intensity ALL the time, you will burn out the bulb. Think about the math - how many hours are the bulbs rated? In my old car, they used the highs at low intensity which was fine, since I never used the highs anyway. I'll wait to see when/if they burn out in mine, and if they keep going, I'll probably remove the DRLs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
