EDGEMAN • 09/12/25 07:21 PM ET
Really? I would have thought you ALWAYS replace them in pairs**
HOKIERIT • 09/12/25 08:06 PM ET
The odds are one of the new bulbs will fail prematurely...lol**
EDGEMAN • 09/12/25 08:08 PM ET
OH...damn! Glad to know. **
HOKIERIT • 09/12/25 08:08 PM ET

EDGEMAN • 09/12/25 08:13 PM ET
Yeah, last time I did it I replaced all four bulbs (had lasted 13 years)**

EDGEMAN • 09/12/25 07:24 PM ET

I don't think VA stops for that infraction anymore.
TomTurkey • 09/12/25 06:28 PM ET
You may as well get ready to pay the fine already...**
ColoVT82 • 09/12/25 05:49 PM ET
