How to prevent interior light bulbs from burning out prematurely in a Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

The interior lights in my Mercedes E-Class keep burning out quickly, especially in the summer months. Is this related to heat, electrical surges, o r usage patterns? Are there any specific maintenance steps o r bulb types recommended for Mercedes-Benz cars in Pakistan to improve their lifespan?

Interior bulbs can burn out quickly due to:

Heat: Pakistan’s hot climate can cause heat build-up inside the car, reducing bulb life.

Electrical surges: Voltage spikes o r unstable power from the car’s electrical system.

Frequent on/off switching: Using interior lights frequently o r leaving them on for long periods drains bulbs faster.

Poor-quality bulbs: Aftermarket bulbs may not handle temperature o r voltage variations well.

To prolong interior bulb life, use high-quality o r OEM bulbs designed for Mercedes, avoid leaving interior lights on unnecessarily, check the vehicle’s electrical system for irregularities, and during extreme heat, park the car in shaded areas o r use sunshades to reduce cabin temperature.
