I changed mine out to a set of 55W small Pilot driving lights. And NO, nothing melted, just need to change out the headlight fuse under the hood from 10A to 15A since it pulls a little more current. I can't find the thread but do a search and it has detailed instructions. Got the Pilot light at Autozone for like $20 and a couple of 4" rubber hose coupling thingy & hose clamps from Lowes for $10 (I think). Whole project costed me $30 and a few hours.
