See how long you can keep them on for before they melt and slide out of the bumper Rolling with laughter

Seriously, that's more than likely.

I know it's expensive but HID will be far superior, or possibly LED which would be cheaper but you need decent ones.

I assume that's because they are plastic or are they abs?

Is the lense plastic as well?

Not 100% sure on the lens, the rest of it is plastic though, I would seriously look at LED if it's looks you want, if it's more light then look at spots or that fantastic LED light bar Thumbs Up

Would you not just get more reflection with brighter bulbs in fog lights?

Why would you want to use 100 watt bulbs?

I fitted 3000k kid bulbs into my fogs. Really bright, and really yellow! Simple fit, and no worries about melting wires either.
