ok I was stupid
i did the turn signal swap couple days ago....
my bulb i dunno exact model name kep coming off the socket and fell into the housing
when i was taking it out so i decided to put a lil electrical tape around the plastic area and the bulb area. now as i was doing the second one i looked at the driver side headlight and wala it was't as bright and kinda looked foggy... so i turn the light off
take the bulb out and the plastic that was hold the bulb was burnt along with my electrical tape....
anyways the socket was spared clean but i took a closer look at the turn signal housing. And the background portion which is the clear chrome like part had couple cracks in em... not so bad but still very tiny cracks..
1-WEll my question is qould that further crack out to other layers of the chrome reflector?
2- do you guys also feel that the bulbs do not sit secure? cuz i have dropped it in the headlight assy like 3 times already i have become master at using tape to cling it out...TT
 
omg i checked today after driving for an hour with dtrl on.....
I am screwed... the turnsignal housing completely melted offffffff
FFFFFuxxxxxkkk.......... like house of wax......
i have a 05 fx would the dealers cover this i remember reading one of the
post that deal with sometype of headlight warranty..... would this be covered?
