    The burnt smell could be coming from the under-dash fuse box. The switch stalks don't normally carry a large enough current to cause any burning. But if it did, the relay it is triggering could be the problem.

    the fuse to the headlight is usually rated at 15 amps (blue fuse). if you have the ability to measure the current to the headlight circuit it would be helpful. if the current is too high there is an overload. if the current is low, there is high resistance in the circuit that is causing the heat build up.

    the OEM headlamp was designed to be at 60 watts, so, at the nominal 12 volt system, it would be drawing at about 5 amperes each.
