Better not, it will throw in code. H8 is 35W, H11 is 55W. When the sensor sensed different "W" it will throw a code.

I am very curious about the lighting myself. I want to change my bulbs and angel eyes. How difficult is this and where can I find bulbs? Do the bulbs plug directly into factory wiring and s the ring on the angel eyes a seperate bulb in it self?

Been convered over and over. Search. Actually, just read the manual. Get H8 bulbs and swap them with your stock angel eye bulbs. done.
