Really?  If you're running H4s, I *strongly* suggest you reach behind
the dashboard and feel the wires at the lamp switch.  When I switched to
H4s (stock wattage - 55/60) my wiring was *very* warm to the touch.
Relays and 10 ga wire made a *big* difference (don't forget fuses).

Anybody else out there:  H4s are THE way to go.  Period.
