    Where did you fit them? Maybe they are in a place that's more exposed than you think?

    Yeah my nearside one is in the battery box and seems to be fine. The offside is tucked under the cross member, and the curve of the metal keeps it pretty well protected, I have checked after driving in the wet and they aren't touched

    It was the near side one that kept giving me trouble on both ballasts. The offside one under the light has been fine

    Ah I see.

    water proof or water resistant? Most are the latter & there's a world of difference.


    Like Del Boy buying Rodney a water resistant deep sea divers watch...
