      Will these cars take headlight and fog light upgrades?.

      I'm upgradeing my headlights again from these: http://www.toucanindustries.com/index.p ... cts_detail

      To these: http://www.texonstore.com/servlet/Detail?no=2
      and the 881 fog lights to these: http://www.texonstore.com/servlet/the-3 ... low/Detail
      The Euroilght bulbs are 60/55 watt and the Texon bulbs are 100/90 Watt (Headlight bulbs).
      My question is have you put bulbs like these in?, and if you have; have you fried your headlight wiring harness?.
      I'm upgradeing because my new job has me driving on the highway early in the morning and late evening, the road is busy and littered with roadkill, I'm looking out for my own safety on the road and not to kill Bambi.
      Looking forward to them getting here and seeing how well they work especially the yellow foglight bulbs.

      i upgraded mine to IPF xenon blue bulbs:
      http://www.automotivelightingusa.com/in ... ts_id=1411
      output is 140/180 but pulls the same wattage as the stock bulbs, i love them they light up the road real well. i dont real care for the yellow foglights with blue headlights, it just doesnt look good, and i would use the same bulbs for both, either go all yellow or all blue.

      I couldn't care less about what it looks like, I just want to see what down the road.

      Then get 4300k in the headlights and only keep the 3000k fogs if you see allot of rain or fog...otherwise get 4300k in those as well

      Well I recieved them in the mail last week, I put them in and WOW! what a difference I now have twice the light I used to have and their not too "blue" and the yellow fogs really help in the fog and in the heavy rain we just had, I love them!. I'll post some pics of them soon.

      Took my sweet ass time but here are some pics of the headlights and fog lights, they do a very good job of lighting up the road.
