I came back out to go home later on in the night and it didnt work.
I thought it must be a loose connection or something so a few days later I tried to tap my bumper to see if it would turn on....nothing....
Okay so im sure the drivers side, the one that blew first, blew completly...so why did the passenger side turn on and work fine...and then stop working again???

Does this make any sense?
by the way that was a few days ago. hasnt come on again randomly since
I'll tell you what happened. I've had shitty bulbs and i know how it works cause i'm a Comp E. major and i learned how bulbs work and stuff... neways, the Tungsten wiring will break off the filament on one side and just be dangling and when you " HIT THE BUMP" you caused it to reconnect back to the other part of the Tungsten and VOIALA.... u have current again, but when you hit the slightest bump again it will fall off. Hense it going back out
