Bimmian interior lights

I did a search and couldn't find anything about these replacement bulbs. Has anyone used them? My wife was concerned that the xenon lights might melt the interior housings. They look brighter than the standard bulbs. Any thoughts?

LOL...That's where you are mistaken. They get QUITE hotter!

Bimmian was a sponsor on one of the E46 boards I troll and many many people had the housings melt because of xenon bulbs. I don't remember the solution or outcome since it didnt affect me...I went LED.
