It looks like some sort of glue around the edging of the cluster. Not really that close to the bulbs. I'll keep an eye on it.
Funny you mention check those bolts, I had just read that a day or two ago. I'll look at them this weekend.

Good to hear! I also had some extra wheels under there at one point. Something about laying under a car...
