[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 432923, member: 18789"] Nah, cheap harness is fine. It's rated to support plenty more than the Hellas would ever pull. Hellas with the best bulbs are rated at 100W per bulb on high beam, so 200W...200 divided by 12V (really more like 13. 6-14.2V with engine running) is 16.67A total at the worst, and 14A at best. The cheap amazon relays can handle that. And if they gave you problems, you could literally just replace the cheap relays in the relay harness with better relays from bosch or similar. The only thing I don't like about the amazon harness is it adds clutter since it plugs into your existing wiring, adds new headlight plugs, adds 2 relays that need to be mounted, and adds a positive and negative that need to go to the battery (+) and fender or battery (gnd). Other than the clutter it adds, it is great. [/QUOTE]
