Headlight bulb replacement
 

Hey All,
My low beam bulb just burned out, so I need to replace it. I went to autozone and picked up a Sylvania H4 ST Silverstar Halogen bulb. I'm a bit worried about throwing it on because the factory bulb is a H4 12v 45/45 watt bulb. The Sylvania I picked up is a H4 12v 60/55 watt bulb. Am I going to have any issues putting this bulb on?

Thanks in advance,
KG

i have that same bulb and its great fits like the stock just much brighter

+1 on the Silverstar, the only difference is that it's brighter.

Common mod, go for it.

I went with the new GE Nighthawk (if I remember correctly, anyhow it is GE`s latest offering) and it works very well too.

I went with the PIAA and like it. I have the Silver Stars in both vehicles and they are impressive over OEM. Any H4 bulb will fit.

Cool, thanks fellas!

Going over 90W is where the risk starts, so you'll be fine.

That's what I was looking for... thanks hawk!

So, over 90watts and you need to run it's own power lead and a relay?

No, over 90W and you risk overheating the plastic housing/reflector thingy.

is that the technical term for it? :lol:
