It draws 60/55w but it LOOKS like 130/110w.

The 2x model works. The 4x is like 80/70w or something like that...too much.

60 watt = HIGH
55 watt = LOW

Please learn before you try to correct someone.

Read what i said dude....

Stick with the 2x version which is 60/55.... it will NOT burn your headlight or harness.

ak is right, it uses 60/55 W, but looks like 130/110W.
Try www.racerwheel.com, not sure if they carry MTEC though.
