On the box it says a 'whiring harness' is recommended.. what is it and why is it recommended?
does it produce more light? The box also says 35W/55W.. I presume the second wattage is more light and therefore only attainable with the whiring harness?
I don't know..
Edit: Nevermind, they recommend it because otherwise you'll run the risk of burning the OEM socket.. but then again they are stock wattage (as it says on the box..)
Thx!

Hahaha no I haven't actually, I was just looking at the pictures of the box on eBay and I noticed it.

My concern is that maybe the fogs will run at 55W in the 35W socket and therefore burn it out?
Sorry about the stupid questions!

Just looking at my packaging for this and it says the same thing on it as the specs below:
Bulb Model: H8
Bulb Color: Hyper Yellow 2500K Stage I
Output Wattage: 35/55W
I would not worry about it they work fine for almost a year now and I use them quite a lot.
Also here is a direct link to the product on Nokya's site:
