Our headlight wiring harness can only handle about 80-90watts max I believe. Or you can just buy higher rated wiring harnesses off eBay for like $10 around. Most aftermarket bulbs are 60watts, but say 110 because they're brightness would mimic a 110w bulb, but Luks are indeed 110watt. Hope you have time to change your order, otherwise buy a better harness or sell them on eBay.
Phew Good news thanks Norrin, I called them just a sec ago and they said they tried to rush out my order last night but missed the ups guy thank God! so they are going to switch it out for me no problems. They sure seem to have good customer support.

Thanks

So the PIAA Super Plasma GTs that say they are putting out about 120/135w are really only putting out stock wattage, right? Otherwise I'd think they'd fry like a big mac in there?

If the box doesn't say 60/65w --> 120/135w then they're probably truly putting out the higher wattage and not mimicing it. I'd call PIAA just to make sure though, since Cuzo doesn't list the to and from wattage and only says 110 even though its a mimic.

Cool, glad my message got to you in time and that they missed their UPS carrier cutoff time.
