Hello Oznium
Are there any risk of heat damage from the tiny resistors attached to each 4chip leds when installed in an enclosed area, like headlamps? I have recently finished my Audi's headlamps with the 4chip leds- all the resistors are hidden under a thick plastic trim, and was just concerned about any heat issues that may eminate from the resistors.
immediate response is appreciated

Many people have done this and none have reported issues.

Immediate pizza delivery to my apartment is appreciated.

They do get very hot to the touch, but I've never had them cause any problems as far as melting plastics.
