My problem:
Installed Hyperlite white plasma bulbs in my 98 civic
(110-150w i think)
4-5 months later, drivers headlight stop coming on. (only a slight glow)
Come to find that the bulb socket is melted and the wires leading to the socket are fried (insulation is burned off).
The bulbs are still working fine.

I've replaced the wiring and went back to stock-type bulbs, which suck arse.

Is there anything I can do that will let me use these bulbs with out frying the wiring again?

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks in advance.
