can anybody tell me the max wattage a the lancers can take in Low Beam, High Beam, and Fog Lights without burning the reflectors, and overloading the relay

Thanks in advance

Low beams are 51w If I'm not mistaken. Unsure about fog lights and high beams

I've been using the MTEC superwhites (55W) in my car now for 2 years, no issues, and lenses are fine, give out a great white light.

A lot of drifers use the MTEC's as they have thicker glass than the Philips.

Autobarn would be more reliable than eBay in guaranteeing authenticity.
