Thanks!!!

LED headlights? LEDs put out so little heat, a hundred of them would not melt the lexan covers used over the headlamps. (That's one reason why LEDs illuminate immediately, they do not require heat to heat up an element to creat light.) Do you mean Zenon, I really have no seen any GOOD LED headlamp bulb replacements?
Unless you increase the wattage to the headlamps, there is no reason they would melt the assemblies. If you install real high wattage bulbs, you probably will melt the wires also.
