Headlight questions?
I notice that my high beams seem to be a regular "yellowish" type bulb. My question is has anyone replaced these with the "Ero Dezigns" xenon bulbs? They are a 30% xenon and 40% krypton bulb. They claim they "will not overheat your wiring like cheap imitations" however they are pretty inexpensive themselves. My questions are.
1) Has anyone used these?
2) Would anyone recommend against using these? And if so why?
Thanks, Phil

1. I have never used those bulbs.
2. As long as the bulb doesn't use more than 65 or even 75 watts you should be fine. I used Sylvania's Silverstar 9005 bulbs in my high beams. They have a cooler white to them and they are bone stock with the wattage.
The cheap imitations they talk about are the over wattage 100 watt bulbs that will melt your wiring because it draws to much current and generates way more heat.
