    Anyone else have this happen to them? Didn't bang anything. Not running fancy bulbs. In fact I switched out everything except the headlight with LEDs to reduce the chances of damaging the housing. Contacted the guy that sold us the truck at the dealership. Would post pics if I knew how from my phone. If anyone can walk me through it, I'll post em up here.

    Build thread coming soon!
    Yikes! Looked at your gallery.
    I think you're looking at a warranty issue. There's no reason for a light to crack like that, ever. Even with high wattage bulbs, all they will do is melt right at the socket.
    Both sides doing it?

    No. Just one side.

    Getting ambiguous to build me lights off new housings so I'm not pissed but still sad face.

    Got in touch with the sales guy we saw for the truck and he scheduled an appointment with a service writer. Really helpful. But, the soonest appointment is in a couple weeks. Hoping things go smoothly.
