 Never any electrical gremlins since you installed them?

Juno- I would be the last person to recommend a bad fix to your lighting
problem. For that reason, I have caveated all my responses about just going to
100 watt bulbs.I have continued to monitor this thread and became convinced I
did a dumb thing by going to the 100 watt bulbs. Today I read more list
comments about this unwise practice so I went out and physically checked the
wiring and connectors at the lamps. Guess what, no problems noted. Wiring was
not discolored nor brittle. connectors show no evidence of overheat. I am sure
the folks giving the warnings no of what they speak but I question how much of
the experience was with the V8.
