Hid Effect Bulbs

[Drummerboy]

First thing I intend to do with my IS is go blue (or maybe ice white) with all bulbs............

Main beam Dipped beam Front fogs Side lights Reverse lights

Map lights Dome light Boot light even Glove box light

Just reading some of the blurb on some of the bulb replacement sites they suggest that the additional heat / load from 80w in the headlamps may cause wiring problems. Anyone had any trouble like this? Last thing I wanna do is cause a meltdown!

Also the 80w's aren't street legal apparently, but has anyone EVER been pulled up over this?

Maybe you'd be safer waiting for another of Zee's group buys on bulbs as a lot of us have them and they're fine.

Can't remember but I think the full beams are listed as having the effect of 110w bulbs whilst still being 60w bulbs.. Likewise the dipped at 100w (55w)? Might have dreamt it though

Cheers aido, must sign up for Gold membership sooner rather than later then

Never had any issues with mine, but the wattage is a lot lower then the eighties.
