This is confused with installation of higher wattage bulbs, i.e. 65W or 100W ... which are illegal, BTW.

The "plus" bulbs such as Phillips Extreme remain at 55 watts and get their improved output from other design changes.

Been using "plus" bulbs for years with no problems and with systems where the bulb is closer to the outside plastic than on the Boxster.

The item most likely to suffer first with installion of higher wattage bulbs is the plastic holding the connectors to the bulb.
