    Well i dont know much about them...but you might want to be careful about the wattage though

    Might want to change to a thicker harness

    I see you already bought them... well with an 80W current draw chances are they will burn out in a month or so. You may get lucky though who knows

    well after i burnt mine .....i went to the dealer like a and paid $10 for one that wasnt even thicker than the old one. So dont go there.

    Actually i have seen them pop up in the ricer section of pepboys for like $5 each.

    If not there then try this...

    or
    http://www.xtremewhite.com/ORD-Light~bulbs...671-1-1-1-1.cfm

    But maybe someone know some place that carries them cheaper.

    What i did was cut the burnt harness off....you will see that there is 2 wires...just connect the new harness to the correct wires.....just connect black to black and red to red...done

    make sure you dont connect the high wattage bulbs to the regular harness at least not for a long time. i did that and left it until the bulb went off..it was still good but the plastic from the harness melted to my bulbs. it was a bitch to change the harness because it was all 1 piece. i didnt know it was cause of the wattage of the bulbs so i went through about 5 or 6 pairs of harnesses before i went back to regular wattage bulbs. i didnt know they had heavy duty wattage harnesses. my suggestion is either get those heavy duty harnesses..i might get a pair my self. or get regular wattage bulb. they wont be as hyper white but it will save your harnesses.

    just go to www.spwusa.com they have heavy duty wiring harnesses for $15 for the pair. I did that and they worked fine. So check them out that way you dont have go all over for nothing, and they deliver to your house. To put em on all you do is cut the old harness off and crimp the new one on. Takes like five minutes total. They are like about 2 times as thick as the stock ones.

    Just buy the rewire kits, you wont have that problem, same principal as the fuel pump rewire mitsu used shity small gauge wires in places where they shouldnt have. If you do the rewire youll notice even your stock lights are much much brighter now that they're getting their full power. The kit is only 30 bucks full wiring and you dont have to clip your old harnesses off it just atatches to it.

    Cant remember the link but I can get it for you later on PM me if u want it
