Default that was me...sorry to hear it happened to you also
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/17991/meltedeuro.jpg"></center><p>it also partially melted the plastic cover to the corner bulb, but that is still workable. the stuff on the outside of the housing is residue from racers tape used at the track the day before.
