Beware that some replacement halogens are draw more power, eg. factory bulb is 55w and replacement bulbs draw 110w. This presents a risk of overheating, thereby melting the factory harness and connector, which can be costly to repair and replace. If you are shopping for halogens, I would urge you to stick with ones that have the same wattage rating as the factory bulbs. You can find the factory bulb specs in your owner's manual. Good luck =) |
