Re: That damn dipstick... NOW headlight upgrade

["Sean Ford" <sean@nwh.org>]

Ok, wiseguy, now that you brought THIS up... (funny, btw) I recently
performed an archive search but I never found an answer to this question...
does anyone know if I am able to simply plug in two 55 lo/100 hi watt
halogens into my existing headlights, or will I need to upgrade
*everything* (wires, connectors, fuses) between the headlights and the
battery? Is anyone else running with these (illegal) halogens? I'm
currently running a single 55/100 in my motorcycle (plug and play) and that
high beam is like a landing light (Tim Allen style gorilla grunt), I'd love
the same kind of lighting performance in my Audi.
