^^ Like he said, they are 100 watts compared to 55W and they will cause major problems unless you install a custom harness or something.

if u r looking for just a bulb replacement, may i recommend PIAA. They r japanese and although expensive (approx. $70-80 per pair) they will not burn out if u install them correctly. Ran them in my dads Acura Legend for 5 years and going, no probs.

They suck. Stay away from them. Stock bulbs have more light output.

Agreed, I've been using them for a few months already and no problems. Looks great, I've compared it with 3000K HIDs, very close.
