Default Bulb Question(s)... If I put 100w Headlight bulbs....

I just switched over to euro headlights... I ordered 100w headlight bulbs... Will this cause any problems/damage w/ the wiring? Also what model are the corner bulbs and where can I find diff colored ones as well as the side marker bulbs? Thanks

Default Which Euro housings do you have?

I have the Valeo units and everything (including the reflector) is plastic or some sort of composite material. I'd be leary of using a 100 watt bulb in these housings for fear of melting the reflectors. Rich Quinlan reported that he had problems with the reflectors partially melting on his Valeo's when he used PIAA SuperWhite bulbs (not sure what wattage).<p><a href="mailto:andy_hedin@hotmail.com"><img SRC="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/A_Hedin_Sig.jpg" BORDER=0></a>
