Default question about the headlights

I have noticed that the right headlight isn't as bright as the left one. While driving behind my friend, he noticed that the right one wasn't as bright either, is this normal or do I need to replace the right bulb? How much do the bulbs for this car cost? Thanks.

Make sure your looking at the lights straight on, since they are HID's if you look at them from a side angle, they look totally different from each other.

Yes, I looked at the lights straight on and the right one is not as bright as the left one. What can I do to fix this? Should I get new bulbs and how much do new bulbs cost? thanks

If thats the way it looks, then yeah you should probably get new bulbs. Don't know how much they are exactly, but I heard they are kinda expensive. I'll see if I can get you a price from my g/f's work which is a Honda dealership.

150-200 a piece?!?! you gotta be kidding me?! I think I'd rather just deal with one being brighter if it costs that much. That is like half the cost of a HID kit. -_-

Yeah i still have 20 months of warranty left, but I doubt warranty will cover headlight bulbs? Has anyone got their bulbs replaced through warranty?

If your bulb is worn out then they will not warranty it. However,it looks like your bulb is defected then they should warranty it
