I've been using these same halogen backup lights in my westy for the last 9
months.  No signs of melting yet.
Unless you like to drive backwards alot, I don't think you'll have any heat
problems with normal everyday use. A cheap and easy way to add some extra
light in the back for those who want it.  I got mine at Pep Boys.  Somewhere
in the $5-10 dollar range if I remember correctly.
