problem help!! (h3 cornering lights)

chiefsotos · 07-21-2010, 12:59 PM

Hello, i just bought for my bmw e92 some mtec lamps for cornering lights.
The issue is that it is H3 with 100w and not 55w.
I speak with my electrologist and said that bmw has a relle and there is not a problem if i put them in. So i tried them and working fine (no check lights)
Is it any case that with the 100 watt h3 to melt the cables, burn some fuse or catch fire?

the MTEC H3 cornering bulbs wont cause any issues or any melting of wires

Thank's, one more question?
I asked bmw dealer, and he said not to use h3 100w, because the lights in e92 is not glass and they may be burn't if i use the upgrade watt.
But the cornering lights just turn on for a little time, so should i worried or not?

just use H3 at 55watts, anything over may melt your factory wires/housing, we only sell H3's at 55watts, so there wont be any issues

I think mine are 80w, had them on for about 6 months and nothing. For the amount of time they stay on i dont think it will be an issue.

Already bought a h3 100w(Basically i order 55w but the shop made a mistake).
The cornering lights just be on for a few sec.., isn't that timing to small in order to made the hole glass light melt, or destroyed?
