Headlight ?

Have a friend w/96 Accord and he has gona through so many headlight bulbs. He found out he needed a higher wattage fuse for them. Do I need a higher wattage fuse also or not. I have H4 in there now 100/80W

Wouldn't it be a lower wattage fuse, so that it blows before the headlight?

Depends on whether that wattage is inpur or output. You have a 15 amp fuse for each headlight. They probably will hold. The problem may show up later after the wires run too hot for too long.

If you are 60/55 watt input, then you are ok.
