Well, tonight I was on my way to work, when all of a sudden BOTH of my headlights go out, completely blown! So, I turn on my brights, soon as I do one of those blow out! Now, Im in the middle of Thetford Forest (where the opening scene of Gladiator is filmed)... there are NO lights what so ever... there are no other cars on the road (its 1230 in the morning), so its DARK. Im getting a bit worried when one of my brights go out cause I still have a 5 minute trip ahead of me.

So, I guess Ill go buy so more bulbs in the morning when i get off work. GRRRR
Funny thing about this is is that my fuses arent blown... I know we talked about this before, but I couldnt find anything on it... rolleyes.gif

That would be crazy as hell if all your lights went out. Trying to drive home with just running lights (the corners) would be mad hard. Would be funny if every single light went out at once. lol.gif

You could be like that dude who can drive with a blindfold on. I still don't know how he did that.

if i had fog lights... i would have turned them on, but im sure they would have went out too...

the bad thing is is that I didnt have the running lights either. when i had to have my rear fog light installed the way they connected it it cut out my running lights... 02.gif so all i had was those little lights just above where the fog lights are supposed to be. (front fog lights I might add I ordered from KSpec earlier today, i think, my friends, that THAT is the definition of irony... laugh.gif )

Are you sure you don't have a fuse that's rated way too high installed?

So would you have spent the night on the side of the road if that last bulb had blown? Or maybe pull out a flashlight and stick your head out the window at 10mph... lol.gif
