I freaked when I saw the condition of the factory wires on my 2007 BMW headlights. The insulation was falling off in chunks. I did hear this may have been some GREEN Soy based insulation??? Anyway bad supply issue to BMW and also Mini.
This had 55w globes in it and to my knowledge it always has, so it isn't due to over rated globes, this is a known issue.
Here i show you a simple fix to keep you going. I had replaced three globes prior to doing this repair. Once i did it I never blew another globe. I DO LIKE AND RECOMMEND the LIQUID electrical tape in the link below.
