| I think I will ask the Auto elect person about fixing the connectore if
| they melt and what would be involved,
Glad you can now see where you are going!
I wouldn't worry too much about the connectors - I had 130/90w bulbs on my last car for 8 years, and have had them on the current LC for 3 years (bulb change every 10 months!); and no problems yet.
If it feels a bit loose when inserting a bulb or, more significantly, the socket shows any sign of arcing (soot) or overheating (discolouration), just crimp it slightly with a pair of long-nosed pliers to get a tighter fit.
