Tail light short

**EvO KiLLeR 2005** · 02-05-2008, 08:05 PM

I recently installed a downpipe in my car and ever since that for some reason I keep burning back tail light bulbs. Is there some sort of connection here i've replaced 2 this month.

Are they always the same bulb or different ones. I went through a period where I replace almost all the bulbs. It was probably over a month or so period. Then I haven't done it since then. Maybe it was just their time to go.
