Anyone know if I can get higher watt h3 bulbs for Navigator lights?
I got two sets of the Pilot brand Navigator lights for 10 bucks each. Got them wired up and for the price they're great but they aren't bright enough for me.
They take h3 bulbs and stock are 55 watts. Is there anything I can do that wont cost an arm or a leg to get them brighter than they are now?
They look bright in this pic but they really arent that bright in real life. Plus I want them to match my Silverstar headlights and not be yellow like they are.

You should be able to get H3 bulbs in 35W, 55W and 100W at any half decent auto parts store (Napa, Autozone, O'Rielly's). Make sure to cover the basics first, using a relay (at least 30 amp) and a minimum of 14 gauge wire to power the lights. Without full system voltage to the bulbs, they will all appear dim.

Will the 100 watt ones cause any harm/damage? I can't find anything in or on the package that says maximum wattage that can be used.
