They headlamp connectors do melt. There are two wires that need to be soldered in. One would go onto bulb like normal and the other would connect to the pin on the headlamp reflector. Not much room in there to do it. If you are not comfortable with soldering, you may want to remove headlamp so you have more room.

The parts dept, may not know. You may have to talk to a tech to have them find the pins. In our shop we keep all the pins, not the parts dept
