I think these COULD make things worse; the powerrating 
is the same at 55/60W, but they state the output is 90/100W.
I doubt if only the lightoutput is higher, I suspect they will get
even hotter than the bulbs allready on your car...

The "Wire Transformers" are nice, but I know from experience 
that the contacts inside the OEM plug can be removed and 
rearranged in the plug. 
I happen to know this since over here in Europe it is illegal 
to have sealed beams on your car, so I allready had converted
lights on my car when I bought it.
Unfortunately the person that conerted the lights fogot to convert 
the plug, so my inner lights and the filaments for high in the outer 
ones would glow a bit when I had dipped beams on and the 
dipped beams weren't bright enough...
With high beams all would be OK. It's just a matter of switching 
the contacts for ground and dipped beam, nothing more...

The price seems OK to me, but if you do this conversion, I would 
also do the inner lights, so the glass lenses look the same, else 
it would look really stupitd IMHO...
