    Replaced my high beam on an 02 360 with a Halogen rated at 65w (could only find 55w and 65w HB3s). OEM is 60w. Is this too much for the wireing?

    Sidelight, dealer wanted to replace the whole headlight for $3,000+ labor for a burned out bulb!!!!

    thank you for replys.

    It should draw less than 1/2 an AMP difference. It shouldn't make any difference at all.
