Headlights. Help needed!
Will the headlights housings last these bulbs or will the housing melt http://www.xenonkungen.com/en/grp/ha...rade-bulbs.php ?
And what is that wire for?
Is it possible to use those bulbs without it because I quickly tried those with and without that wire and it seemt that it doesn't make any difference ? Even any error doesn't shown in dash and those are 100W H7!
FTW?

That adapter cable is used to protect the stock lamp socket, the wire on the picture has a ceramic housing that can withstand more heat.
Its a real gamble to fit 100W bulbs, its very easy to fry both reflector housing, socket and wiring.

DONT, I REPEAT, DONT put higher wattage bulbs inside of our housings...
Every time that I have done it, I have ended up with a fried wiring harness and /or housing unit...
And guess what, those wires coming out of the fog lamps that look like they would cost $10 to replace, are actually more like $125..
Change the bulb color, but keep the wattage the same!
I promise you'll save yourself from wasting money down the road...
