Description of the problem	So about 3-4 months after purchasing my 2008 pontiac g6 gt, the headlight went out on the drivers side. I decided to replace both low beam bulbs on the drivers side and passengers side. The passenger side hasn't been too bad, it would go out, but a tap on the headlight would turn it back on. The drivers side however, would go out at any random time, then cut back on almost immediately or a few minutes later. I did see that the plug for the low beam was a little melted, but didn't think much of it. I don't know if the car was able to withstand the current needed for the bulb or the wiring was just terrible.
