Piaa yellow extremes

Question about these.

If I use oem fog lights and swap out the bulbs for piaas, would I need to get thicker wire because the watts that the piaa needs is 110W. Would it fry the fuse and the wires?

you would be doubling the watts they would get really really hot and certianly melt the wires, and you would have to replace all the wire for it to make a difference if you get bigger wire. just get a HID kit..

I doubt those Piaa's are actually 110 watts. Read xactly what it says and it'll likey be more something along the lines of " as bright as a 110 watt". Check it out...
