Running more current through a switch can burn it up. Another solution is the PIAA or Hella bulbs that have more light output with the same wattage.   Dean Brown (Deanbrown3d) Senior Member Username: Deanbrown3d Post Number: 632 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Friday, April 25, 2003 - 05:28 pm:    I run 80/80 on the D2 2 years now.
