Blown indicators on a WB tail tidy.

Both my indicators have died in the last 24 hours...

Took them apart today and both bulbs are history. But they're broken the element rather than showing a black plume of smoke and burnt it out etc.

They're static mounted,not rubber mounted.

Rekon it's the mounting then causing them to vibrate to death or crappy bulbs ?
