don't use higher wattage bulbs ... these headlights are too expensive to replace when damaged by heat ... plus do the math and it makes no sense ... buying 100 watt bulbs that you will replace every 6 months at $20 bucks a pack ... or purchase a cheap HID kit on ebay for $130 that will last 2 - 3 years, draw 35 watts, generate less heat, output more light ...

i've played with 100 watt bulbs from all different brands a few years back on my neon and had to rewire the harness with heavier gauge wire and 40 amp relays to make it safe ... but even then the light output was not as good as a cheap HID kit and the cost of wires/relays/sockets added up ... HID systems cost over $500 back then so it made sense but not anymore ...
