My right front indicator bulb blew last night, so I took a run down to Scoobysport to buy some new ones.

I replaced the faulty bulb and alls working OK, everyon'es happy.

I then noticed on the back of the package: "IMPORTANT Always fit Silvertec bulbs in paris"

I was going to leave the 2nd bulb in the packet as a spare for when the next one went pop.
Can anyone tell me why I shouldn't do this and should go put it in my car now and throw away a perfectly working bulb.....???
