glenn-350 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I have read some where here [can't seem to find it again],that you can upgrade the main beam bulb H7 55w to 100w. was wondering anybody done this and if so has it made a difference. thanks in advance Quote
scubapics Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Any changes to the wiring needed? Can the existing wiring handle nearly twice the current? Quote
flyboy Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Just stuck them in lots brighter and no nasty burning smells so I guess so. Quote
flyboy Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 these arent road legal though are they? No not road legal. For off road use only However I have passed the last 2 MOT's with them in. Quote
S1 HNK Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I'd be concerned of heat issues with putting such higher rated bulbs in. Could be an expensive mistake. Quote
Dblock Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Did that on my old car as I never used beams. They looked awesome. No problems with wiring. Quote
glenn-350 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 some of the bulbs i've looked at, have a clear coating on to protect the plastic lens ie heat, i think most people would only drive with full beam on in short burst Quote
