Not forgetting, the usage of more alternator power. This is a problem with
low output alternators with blues, hi-output stereos, and so forth.

Higher wattage bulbs will make the wireing to the bulbs hot and can cause
problems unless a special wire kit intended for high wattage is used and
installed in place of stock wireing.
