I wouldn't get those xenon bulbs off eBay if that's the route you're thinking of going. Yes, they're too hot - the best way to prevent them from melting your wiring (your lenses are glass, so they won't melt) is to get new pigtail sockets with higher gauge wires. Still, that's no guarantee. If you're looking for an inexpensive alternative to the standard color of halogen bulbs, Pilot makes bulbs that are whiter, they're $20/pr and won't melt your stuff. But neither the eBay ones nor the Pilot bulbs are going to be a replacement for good quality halogens, HIRs or HIDs.
