Left head light plug melted

Hey!
My right headlight plug melted and the headlight stopped working so I changed the plug and changed the headlights to led bright ones, then shortly after having them on the right side both head lights cut out and one on the left side.
The fuse for the right headlight is a little melted but still works and all plugs have 12v going to them, earthed properly and have 12 v going to the plug when full beam is turned on. I was looking for a headlight relay as that might be why there?s too much power going to the headlights and causing them to over heat and plugs to melt. When I try to plug the headlights in there comes a sizzling sound as if the plug is about to melt. I?ve read that having after market super bright headlights with stock harnesses would cause headlights to work but I doubt then would cause the plug to melt? Wouldn?t it fry the wires?
Any one had this problem? The engine is srd20det Silvia s13 (japanese).
Does anyone know where the headlight rely is? I pulled all relays I could see under the hood and at the drivers footwell (far right hand side) and the headlights still had power going to them so I?m guessing none of the one I pulled was for them!

Any help appreciated!

Thanks!!
