High / Low beams on NF Sonata
I’m currently driving a ’05 NF Sonata and was contemplating the replacement of the high and low beams headlight bulbs.
I understand that the factory bulbs are H1/55W and H7/55W for the high and low beams respectively.
Has anyone here tried replacing the factory 55W bulbs with that of a higher wattage?
Philips has H1/100W and H7/80W; suppose I stick such bulbs into my vehicle, will there be any side effects?
Fuse blown? Melted headlights?
How does Philips stack up against PIAA?
Many thanks.

RE: High / Low beams on NF Sonata
I have not tried putting higher wattage bulbs in any headlight but I would think that it is not a good idea. If you're lucky you will just blow a fuse. If not, you may melt the headlight housings/lenses or burn wiring.
Philips is a decent brand. I do not have any personal experience with PIAA but their products seem to be overpriced to me.
