I just installed LED bulbs in my headlamps. While twisting them in, I got some plastic shavings inside the headlamps.. Has anyone else had this issue and if so what did you do? Just leave them in there?

I wouldn't worry about them. You are going to have a LOT more plastic shavings in places if you hang around this forum long enough.

I just replaced a burned out bulb and noticed some very fine shavings or something in mine, I’m not too concerned.

You could try using a can of compressed air to to blast the shavings out.

I was thinking a good fart might do it and be free. This post is a result of working night shift and slowly losing my sanity.
