heres ur answer: just pop the stockbulbs back in and go play dumb! unless your harness is fried, theres no way they can tell youve replaced the bulbs.

new harnesses dont cost a whole lot though, so if all else fails, get some aftermarket harnesses that can handle plus-wattage bulbs

My harness is still good. I got Hiper Industries. I don't drive my car much. Its a 2001 civic ex with only 12000 miles on it. Don't know what is wrong.
