Subject: Re: Headlight switch spins in housing


I know the extra fuel comsumption is minimal, but these bulbs eventually burn out and have to be replaced more often with them on all the time the vehicle is running. I noticed that I had to replace the bulbs frequently in my '94 when I first got it. I don't want a police officer to notice a bulb out before I do and write ma a ticket. Can you imagine what a point or two will translate in an increase in my insurance policy?
