I have the factory xenon lights with new bulbs but would like a bit more intensity. It looks like they use the same 9006 or whatever style connector.

Was planning to just unclip the power wire from 35w ballasts rather than remove bumper and headlights.

Tried it and it threw a lamp out code, will use the ballasts for fogs instead. Was a pain getting the connectors off.
