ya you did put this is the wrong place but let me guess why it melted.
You put in some Nokyas or some other crap brand of lights you ordered off line am i correct. and for that matter you didnt hook them up to a wire harness so if they melted you could just plug normal lights into the stock socket.
i am not knocking you i have done it before i am just wondering if i am right

I just had the same thing happen to the wife's '00 RS. OEM headlamps and all. Never had an aftermarket bulb. Just went to the pick n pull in Rancho Cordova and got a replacement. Wired it in myself and bingo!

same thing happened to me in my L, using Sylvania's silver stars. No clue why it happened. Went to the same Rancho Cordova Pick n Pull, got mine from a Forester and 2 gen Legacy
