I installed some polargs for the roadlamps the other day. Today I got a pair of the piaa plasma blue for kicks, just to see how they look. When I was installing them I noticed some white gooey stuff around the wires and at the end of the housing, felt kinda like melted frosting, anyways. I dont think this is normal, but has anyone else noticed this? The bulbs still work fine though.

 

hmm i think a rabbit may have a little TOO MUCH fun under your car!!

Actually that stuff is called like electrlitic paste or something. It prevents corrosion of the wires.

Yeah it ought to be okay...If you really dont trust it then take the bulbs out.

I think it's Lithium grease. It can be used on electrical connections to prevent corrosion.
