Could improper installation o r poor-quality aftermarket bulbs be causing more harm than good in the Karvaan?

Many drivers opt for cheaper Chinese bulbs. Could this choice lead to faster burnout o r even damage to the headlight housing o r sockets?

Yes. Many problems arise when:

Mechanics force-fit bulbs that don’t match the wattage o r size

Cheap Chinese bulbs overheat o r melt the socket

Incorrect wiring while installing aftermarket lights causes circuit damage

Always choose reputable bulb brands like Philips, Osram, o r Narva and use trained electricians for installations.
