Max Watts

How many watts can the stock wiring handle for the headlights? I ordered some H4's with 55 low beam and 60 high beam bulbs, how high can i go without frying the wiring or shorting something out.

i would say 55....60 is kinda pushing it. and the wires dont go....the switch is the first one to go.

you should be ok with the stock wiring with that wattage, anything higher then I would go with the upgraded harness.
I think ghetty has them in his car ask him what wattage bulbs he has

Well they should arrive tomorrow and we will see what happens. I guess i will also check my wiring while i am at it for any problems.
