Sorry I understood the upper light was smoking.

So I actually got a response from IPCW about my issue. They said they'd never had this issue before and recommended I contact the retailer to see if I cant replace under their warranty. Being that I ordered from CarID.com I believe they will. They have been super great to me since I started ordering from the and super helpful. Sent them my original emails I sent to IPCW and hope to hear back from them tomorrow.
Today, I even had my mechanic check my car out and he said everything looked good and all systems go. So, he deduced that there was a short in the actual light itself that given time would have potentially burnt out. My putting a little extra juice in it only helped find the issue.

CarID is one of our supporting vendors, they’ve been great!

New to the site and new owner of a 2006 model. A set of these lights were already installed in mine and had had the same problem, kept popping the parking lamp fuse. I found the wires from the upper lamp to the lower were pinched between a mounting nut and bracket. If your lamps were removed and reinstalled, this might have happened.
