I have only seen this happen when aftermarket bulbs are used in place of the foglamp bulbs. Doesn't melt them though it just causes the black housing around the bulb to come unglued and roll around in the lamp assembly. I'm now running Silverstars and love them.

I changed to silverstars, both headlights and fogs, no issues. I run them in all my vehicles.

Silverstars for both fogs and standard lights. No problems at all. The reason for the problems with the fogs was the install and some people were bumping the black thing i guess. I can't remember but I remember the original post had something like that.

I tried thesilverstars but they would not fit. The actual "keys" on the bulb housing seemed a little wider than the stock bulbs. Maybe I'll try to shave them down a lil bit. I didn't try the fogs since it was 9 degrees outside and my hands were painfully numb but I might give it another shot this weekend.

I say keep it stock, they are pretty good. I have seen mixed reviews on the Silverstars.
