I purchased a 2005 5.7L V8 Dodge Ram Daytona from a family member. I have had it for about a year and I took it to the mechanic to get some maintenance. My left blinker light has been out for a while. I haven’t changed it out of pure, laziness. But when I took it to the mechanic, they said the blinker lights were melted to the headlight assemblies. When I talked to my cousin, he said they had already replaced the assemblies once, less than two years ago from Amazon (oddly they can’t find these in their purchase history). I asked him what kind of bulbs he put into the headlights, and he said LED bulbs. I then asked if they had installed an adapter and they said no. That being said, there may have already been an adapter installed, I haven't checked yet. Can LED bulbs go in the 2005 model without an adapter? I’m so confused as to why it melted again, any tips? Is this due to a cheap purchase from Amazon? Is there somewhere I can purchase assemblies that won’t melt? Does anyone have any clue as to what has happened? Ps I'm a female and this is my first Dodge Pickup so please excuse any obvious ignorance.
