Headlight question
Hey guys, Im new to the forum and ive been reading up on upgrading headlights...ive come to the conclusion the NOKYA Arctic White 100W are the best for the money and looks (as far as im concerned). Im about to buy them on ebay but I wanted to make sure im gettin the right ones.
Heres the link:

I may be wrong, but I seem to remember reading something about the 100W 9006's doing some funky shit to factory harnesses, melting them, burning them out, etc... You've probably done more reading on this than I have, but just in case you haven't heard that, might want to do a little checking up on that before lighting those mothers up.

I am interested to hear about this.......for roughly $30 bucks it is worth a shot, unless you end up melting your shit
Curious, how would one go about installing these wrong?

100w bulbs burn VERY hot and can melt your harness and/or your housing, not to mention the light output isn't much better than standard halogen lights. My advice: step up and drop HIDs in. You'll be more satisfied in the end

is this for a 2nd gen?
if you do, isn't the high beam a 9005? and isn't your low beam HID's? or am i just confused
100W for the high beam might be alright, just cause you are probably not likely gonna be using it for as long as you would your low beams.
*edit*
p.s. - i've had nokyas before. i don't think they were the 100W ones, but i was happy with them. They were in my brother's 4runner, and were H4's. They lasted about 2 years for me, and i recently bought another set to replace them.
