je sais pas....p-e a la longue. Y'on quelle puissance tes bulbes que t'avait avant? Penses-y, si tu run trop de jus dans des fils trop petits, y vont chauffer et peuvent causer des etincelles et puis du feu....pas bon. C'est quoi que t'essaye de faire au juste?

Le câblage courant est ment pour manipuler 55w maximum. J'ai noté
que si je laisse mes faisceaux élevés là-dessus fond les prises.
qui pourraient mener au feu.

EDIT: hooray for french class in highschool.

The stock wiring and the headlight housings are not designed to handle bulbs of such high-wattage. You could upgrade the wiring with a custom relay setup, but even then, the heat of the bulbs could still damage the headlight housings over time (even if there is no immediate visible damage). If you are interested in upgrading the performance of your headlights, try some Philips Vision Plus bulbs. They're standard wattage, but offer a nice improvement over the factory bulbs, and are some of the finest halogen bulbs you'll find. They're also very reasonably priced, and can be found at: Autolamps-Online.
