[urq] H1 bulb

[Rich Letsinger]

100w bulbs are illegal for low-beams in the States. 
I've seen them labeled "off-road use only" and maybe
that's the "rally" labeling on yours.  But any H1
bulb, either a low-beam legal 55w one or a higher
wattage one will fit.

Two concerns with higher wattage bulbs.  One is heat
in the headlight housing, that can damage the
reflector.  The other is current in the wiring, be
sure you've relayed and maybe even rewired your lights
to handle the extra current.
