Hey guys I just recently purchased a set of the Nokya 2500k bulbs for my m-tech bumper and I was wondering if 70 watts might melt anything. I tried searching for what the wattage for the stock 9006 bulb was but couldn't find anything, althoguh i'm sure its a lot lower than 70w



If anyone has any input or personal experience please chime in, thanks in advance

Please note it says "stock wattage". It's really not a good idea to go higher than what was originally there for exactly the reason you are asking about, a lot more heat than originally intended.

I can't speculate as to what might melt, but something might, especially if what was there was originally 35w.

70w to much.

thanks frank for the input do you think 70w would cause any issues? I'm going to Long's tomorrow for install and I don't think I have the time to order a set from e92-lighting

If that's the case then I'm sure he'll know what to do. I thought you were just going to plug them in directly. If he runs wires you'll be fine...

Oh, and I'm betting the stock ones are 51W.

I had the same experience and it melted my passenger side harness using the nokya bulbs ... once, it had melted, i purchased some aftermarket 9006 harnesses and replaced it ... i do not have any problems thus far
