Hey guys I have just bought some super white bulbs off ebay. They are an H1 and they will plug straight in to the existing sockets. Do I have to add hot wire or anything else. Will they cause any damage, It says on the side of the packed,

"this product may require special installation due to is high output of heat and pressure"

Thanks

if u had the 100/110w ones they may melt the socket but the 55w ones should be cool

H1's just a globe model/shape. E.g. H3 is probably the highbeam and H4 is another comon one on cars.
I wouldn't waste my money on the eBay.comm.au ones, they don't last long at all, better spending the extra and getting some decent Philips Vision ones from Autobarn or Narva Artic Blue from Repco.
