Re: 87'Olds headlights that pop.

What kind of Oldsmobile do you have?  I was guessing while researching the 
issue, and assumed that it came from the factory equipped with Halogen 
bulbs.

Taped connections?  It might be good to take them all apart and inspect
the 
quality of the splices.  Maybe the machine had an accident earlier and 
someone put new fenders on it but did not rewire in a professional manner.

Is there any way that water could be spla****ng onto the bulbs through an 
opening in the headlight housing?
