    im pretty sure 100w is way to high, you definately run the risk of melting things. just get some silverstars, or upgrade housings and get some HIDs.

    SilverStars are a brand of bulb. You can pick them up at Wal-Mart, Autozone, PepBoys.
    Anwhere like that will have them. Should be about $50/pair (I think??)

    100 watt bulbs will melt your harness, unless you buy an adapter harness.

    http://www.suvlights.com/ has some pretty good deals on that type stuff.
