minor peeve about civic dome light
 

My 2004 civic's indoor roof light has burned out four times since I
got it.
The bulbs arent that expensive. But I've never seen these burn out so
quick before.

How tight is the bulb clamped in there? If the contacts are loose you can
get arcing that will shorten the bulb's life.

And are these aftermarket or OEM bulbs?
