    Are there high watt bulbs for HB4, to warrant a relay and wiring upgrade job?

    Better to go with Philips Vison Plus or Osram Nighbreakers perhaps? Plug and play, better lighting than OEM.

    I'm using Narva All-weather HB4 on my Corollas.

    Strange though given na hindi masyado malaki yung difference between the 51W and 55W bulb to warrant the socket to melt. Unfortunately, i have not seen any HB4 sockets made of ceramic as the design is different from your usual H4, H3, etc.

    yup kaya nga medyo panic mode ako sir. ayaw ko kasi mangyari ito sa headlights ko using philips crytal vision 4300k 55w low beam

    yesterday kasi na busted yun right side socket + bulb kaya naisip ko somethings wrong. kaya binasa ko yun manual to my surprise 51w nakalagay

    and binalik ko yun stock bulb ko 51w nga yun bulb slyvania.

    though yun isang socket na busted left side but ok yun bulb napalitan ko na socket nagyari ito last month.

    binasa ko din yun manual ng civic 2011 namin 51w din yun hb4 niya weird.

    lahat ng aftermarket 55w. sobrang minimal nga lang yun difference.

    go to auto electrical shop. malamang meron sila. let them install it. add relay if you have the budget. better be safe.
    mahirap masunugan. rewiring will cost you.
