doesn't "higher Wattage"="burnt sockets" in the long run?? just wondering... i hesitated doing this mod for these reasons... think i caught the issue in the ARCHIVES. So i went cheap with EURO-LITEs 9006, and the matching fogs. Put em in October. Other CEG'rs say they burn out quick... been about 8 months for me and still going. The bulb is blue and looks ricer, but had my lady drive my SVT behind me in her car, and it looks white with a slight hint of blue... and compliments the EUROLITE foggie bulbs i put in because those are totally white... I later removed the yellow reflector and stuck clear sylvannia's in the turn signal, which STILL apears to be yellow-- till you signal. i got the 9006's for $18.00 for a pair... i think the fogs were thesame price off some website.



Ths Silverstar 9005's will not burn out the sockets since they are normal high beam bulbs and if you look at the wiring, low beam and high beam wiring use the same exact guage wiring.

Now if you stuck those illegal high wattage bulbs in there, then you would toast the wiring nicely.
