Has anyone tried this bulb on an BMW G650GS? I am a bit concerned it might fry the wires, reflector or lens.

I tried it in a Harley with a new ceramic plug and heavy duty wires, burned up the harness. Left me in the dark 60 miles from home!

See if you can get a heavy duty connector that fits between your original wire harness the new bulbs.

I noticed another brand allowed the bulb to be "re-clocked". I think I see that on mine, but in town I never get to go on high beam. I'll have to re-check the 3 tabs to see if I can rotate them up.

Can they be used as fog light bulb replacements? I don't know. I put them (2) into my 2012 BMW R1200GS motorcycle. One in the High beam and one into the low beam. Both work well and are brighter than the factory bulbs.

Not sure leds effect different makes n models differently. Check forums or other reviews for your model vehicle....my 06f150 just blinked faster; i know depending electrical and options cruise etc they impact different also if you use more than one set of bulbs tail lights etc it has various impact.....gluck.

Hey Drew, these bulbs pretty good quality I would encourage anyone to buy them but will it fit? I can't say I'm not familiar grand prix, however if the bulbs that you are replacing it with is a T10 wedge certainly will. Thank you.

I dont have a clue. You may want to check the forums for the differences between GTI vs GLI and compatibilities. It's worked like a charm for me, I just need to VAGCOM so I can change my lighting preferences.

I had the same issue where all the original bulbs blew out in a month. I shopped around a bit for finding a good replacement and home depot, lowes, Ikea all have them fairly cheap. It uses the G4 halogen bulb. Hope this helps.

You should be able to ask the seller this question. We have had no problems this far with this replacement bulb!

Not really sure why it did that, it sounds like one of your wires might be crossed and it is blowing your headlight. I had an electrical buddy install mine and the switch is working fine. I wish I knew more about wiring to help you but all I can say is trace your wires and double check them to see if they are going where they need to. Good luck

I put this bulb in my wife's Harley, w/ a glass head light. no problem using the bulb.

This is what i would do: Find out for SURE if your car uses a headlight RELAY. If it does, fine. IGNORE people who claim you have to change the wiring to bigger wire. THAT is what causes the bulbs to over-amp and burn too bright and hot. BUT, get on AMAZON and query CERAMIC HEADLIGHT SOCKETS for your particular bulb. The factory sockets are CRUMMY and the CERAMIC replacements are much more heavy-duty. The CERAMIC sockets come with pigtails to connect to your original wiring harness. But anyway, the CERAMIC sockets are inexpensive and they are VITAL to insure you do not have problems -- and problems with the 100/80 bulb are way too common. It's the folks who insist on providing too high a voltage who run into problems. My neighbor has been using these bulbs for eight years with no problems. The lights are WAY brighter so adjusting them "down" is vital to avoid blinding oncoming drivers. Buy an extra bulb "just in case". I am a retired electrical engineer.

You're welcome. I know this because the older models used 12v T4 50w bi-pin halogens, but I removed the reflector and replaced it with an MR16, and they work fine. I was thinking about LED but bought several MR 16 bulbs on sale.

I have a 2009 G6 and the bulb does snap onto the clip. I did have to push down a little harder than expected but it's been months and no problems!

Without a heavy duty harness and relay it WILL fry your wires from the bulb to your headlight switch. I've had it happen.

I bought some eBay led headlights that were rated at 150w. The results were not good. Put an HID kit in there instead and it was easily 3 times bbrighter , however the spread is horrible but I have yet to try to aim the headlights. I think that a stock halogen bulb with high output might give you the best balance. Best of luck. I don't regret the hids though, serious upgrade

HelloWe dont recomend you use HID lights, it can possibly melt the housing.Thank you
