Be careful using those bulbs....in my 1994 I had, the bulb ended up popping inside the light housing and it was a pain in the butt to remove the broken glass. Also like the post said above...it can overheat your wires and cause them to get brittle or melt the coating. I would say stay away from them.

I had bulbs like that in a previous car...melted the headlight wiring. So I ordered some more bulbs similar to those, but they were suppose to run cooler...they melted the wiring as well :curse:

LOL! How many times does it take you to learn? LOL! Just kidding. :D

I've been using Hella 100W high beam bulbs in my other car for at least three years with no ill effects. I also have a DRL mod, so the lights are constantly on but at a lower wattage. I just wanted something to fry the retinas out of the occasional **** who doesn't turn off his high beams at night.

I also didn't want anything with an annoying blue or purple tint. Some people may say "Well, isn't a 100W high beam in your eyes annoying, too?" Yes, but only the occasional **** with his high beams on sees it.

Again, I haven't tried these in my Viper but they've held up pretty well in my daily driver.
