My G2 loves eating FSM bulbs. Why?

    In the 27 months since I've owned my '08, I've replaced front side marker bulbs 11 times. Seven on the left side and 4 on the right side. I've cleaned the contacts and tried several different brands. Any ideas?

    Measure the voltage going to the bulbs... There's probably something wrong in that regard... That is assuming you've bought bulbs from different sources/brands and the problem persists.
