Ordered Foglight bulbs.... hmmph

okay so i ordered some 12V 55W Foglight bulbs... and 12V 100W Fotlight bulbs came .... would it melt my harnesses to use them ?? i know its bad idea to do that with headlights, i wasnt sure if it was the same deal with foglights... cuz theres not even heavy duty harnesses u can buy for foglights i dont think.... thanks

bump for a dumb Q lol

100 watt bulbs will not make your stock harness's happy, they draw almost twice the current as the stock 55w unit.
You could do a relay harness and use the factory harness just to trigger the relay....but I have no idea if the foglights themselves will take the extra heat.
