Default question about bulbs?

if i'm getting new bulbs that say 100wtts. Should i be using a bigger fuse and what size fuse would work without either the bulbs or my fuses blowing? any help please. the lights are for my projectors ( projectors = gay whatever, just need help not flames)
thank to those that can provide good info. in advance.

You don't have to worry about the fuses... you will have to worry about the wires melting...

Your stock bulbs operate at 55W... if you're running constant 100+ watts on spaghetti thin wires, you're just asking for trouble..

I don't suggest it.

MaxBoost is right. Using higher wattage bulbs would just melt your headlight wiring harness together. Just stick with your normal wattage bulbs. Piaa and/or Raybrig makes some decent lighting that use the stock wattage bulbs that you could use for your projector headlights.

don't they sell wiring harnesses especially for that? I remember seeing it somewhere.
