From the wiring side, anything higher than stock wattage, you want to use an external harness with relays triggered by the factory wiring and with a fused connection to the battery.

You can DIY make one if you get the bulb connectors and have the relays.
On the side of the headlamp housing, don't know if it will put up for the heat or not. They could yellow or develop melted spots. This part is all supposition on my part, from what I have seen members post in the past.
