Nope only Low beams but the Lows are brighter than my Silverstar highs so I don't think you really need highs.




First I blew the High Beam fuse which is shared by both headlights. Stock there is a 15AMP fuse in it but I had a 20AMP fuse in it since I kept blowing th 15AMP on my old Blue Rice Bulbs. Now I have a 30AMP in the highs unitl I buy some 25AMP's to try. On the Low Beams I blew one fuse which was for the driver side. Stock they have 10AMP and I kept it at 10AMP since I think the reason I blew it was b/c it was the first time I turned them on. From what the instructon book says, the first time they are turned on they draw more current to get them started.

Highs Stock (1 fuse) 15AMP
Highs Now (1 fuse) 30AMP until I buy some 25AMP to try

Lows Stock (2 fuses, one for each lamp) 10AMP
Lows Now (2 fuses again) 10AMP




Yeah I hope they last to. When I ordered them I didn't know his bulbs weren't that great. On the good side though, when I first turned them on I didn't get any flicker or anything. They came right on perfectly, except for my fuse trouble.

each of the four fuses should be upgraded to 5 amps more than stock. if you keep 10's in the low beams you will continue to blow them. also, having a 30 in the high s too much. you are letting to much current through. i had this kit for over a month so i know what needs to be done. just upgrade everything to 5 amps more and you should be good to go.
