the problem with the LT1 Trans Am lamp is that the housing is plastic (Im assuming there is an aluminum lining inside for the reflector, but its super thin), but the lens is glass so the glass is good, but the plastic isnt.

the LS1 Trans Am lamp is plastic/plastic and both melt.

I have seen some Hella replacements that are metal and glass, but they are $150+
