I heard about the wattage and it creating a ton of heat in the headlight area. Is that true? I mean, I only turn on my fogs when I need them, so that shouldn't pose too much of a problem, I guess.
When I'm in the "check-out" phase of the website, they offer me the chance to buy this supposedly extra durable harness that connects between the bulb and the stock harness. It costs 18 bucks. Is that worth it?
I use my 35watt fogs almost every time the headlights are on. And its been almost a year no problem.
Nah if its an H4 bulb then it should just be plug and play, Take out the old bulb and put the new one in. Basically there is an adapter that has 3 slots you just slide it over the bulb just like OEM and then close the cap. Your done.

Well even with stock bulbs the headlights get hot. Higher the wattage the hotter they will be.

How do you know, I did not test with them outside, I installed and turned on.
If you want to buy a spare wire for no reason go ahead.
These are H4 bulbs, look at the bottom, Its exactly how the oem bulb looks like and it is standard H4 Bulb, if the bulbs you buy do not look like this on the bottom then they are not H4. Also look at the Placers, The top and the sides have to be lined up There are little tabs, which are easily seen in the picture.

I'm a bit confused over the Airbag recall. I ended up getting it done. They replaced:
Bracket Kit
Band Hose
Clip
Clip Wiring harness
Updated BTS connector
Is the airbag light supposed to show that it's off when no one is sitting there? Or is it never supposed to be illuminated?
