Amazon says they are okay as a replacement bulb for my low beams on my 2005 Saab Convertible. Is there any danger of it causing damage to wiring harne

No, they are a direct repacement for the low beams; I've had ours on for awhile now (and some other brands) and have not had any issues. These German made bulbs really are the best money can buy.

Followed the Amazon recommendation for my Mercedes. Does not draw any more power than standard bulb. However, it is brighter.

It wouldn't be advised to try. The plastic around bulb could crack, they are pretty cheap in that aspect. Replacing the light itself is probably a better option.

I have used these bulbs as replacements for burned out bulbs in my motorhome. They work perfectly. Apologies, I am unable to help you with your problem. Good luck on finding an answer.

I would suggest that you take your car to another mechanics. In general, light bulbs are universal when it comes to be placed on the left or right head, tail or side light socket. Yes they all have different spec depending where they located and what they purpose is. Anyone should be able to switch light bulbs from left to right and vise versa. In fact, it is advisable to do it in order to test that it is the light bulb and not a fuse or the wiring that is defective. This light bulb is used as low beam in many cars and different spec for the hi-bean. When replacing the headlight bulbs, replace them both at the same time.

I would say "no." They are a bulb-iin-socket type of lamp and rely on a clean, unexposed connection. They aren't terribly rugged, their advantage over standard incandescents is the lack of fragile filaments, but they still have tiny wires that connect all of the led chips together. Keep them clean and dry!

Hi, I use the 80/100 H4 bulb in my Jeep. I changed out the stock lights with H4 lights and have really enjoyed them. The bulbs are bright and have not caused any damage to my lenses. These are stronger than Dot approves for road use

They are the same as any automotive bulb. The nib in the center is positive 12v and the sides are grounded. I can't speak to wether they will work for old positive ground vehicles but I wouldn't be surprised if there are steering diodes included.

I would think as long as the wattage was correct yes.Like any light fixture you must insure the wattage does not exceed the recommended maximum. Please if you do replace the bulbs be careful to avoid possible fire. I have had mine and do not leave them run often so I do not go through many bulbs. They are the flood shape bulb and that could be an option. The stock bulbs are fragile and very light. Hope I have helped you out.

They are H4 and do not harm the electrical parts of the car. People may say that they are more likely to burn out, but that is simply because they touch the glass part of the bulb with their bare hands which lets oil on your fingers to get onto the bulb, causing it to crack and dramatically shorten the life. So it is not the bulb that may appear defective, it is the carelessness and ignorance of people who do not read the instructions.

Not at all!! They were a bit bright for my bedside lamp and I actually have plastic yellow tail light (automotive type) lens repair tape wrapped entirely around both bulbs. Don't if it is recommended or not but it works great. Also, I work graveyard shift and leave the lamp lit all night long while at work. I can actually hold the bulb after several hours of illumination and they are only slightly warm but never too hot to hold. Should be no problem whatsoever.

I would have no problem using this bulb as you describe. I have NOT, however, used it in a base-up position. i would do more research before I tried that.

I would pass on that if were you. I plugged them in the my Honda Civic and it burned the wiring out for the light bulb itself so now when I have a regular lightbulb in the high doesn't work and the DRL LIGHT IS ON MY DASH.

Hi We appreciate the question,and this bulb will be a direct replacement for the one already outfitted for your vehicle.But the Philips automotive fit guide says it is used for LOW beam application only.http://www.philipsautolighting.com/bulb-lookup.php?make=17&model;=345&year;=2005&tri;m=NULLThank you for choosing The Wires Zone.

I would say no. The individual LEDs of the bulb are exposed to the elements.

I honestly have not had one problem with these bulbs, and I have my lights set on auto so they come off and on flawlessly. Only things bad I have to say and it's really not bad is the color has alittle more blue tint to them then normal 6000k bulbs I've had in the past, but that might just be from the projectors in the headlights. If you have standard headlight housing the color might not have the blue tint. Also when installing them when you plug them in if they don't fire up, don't worry just reverse the main wire going to the ballast and you'll be good. You won't regret it with the price, I bought these because I had 8000k and the blue color was just unbearable, side note I held onto the 8000k bulbs in case these ones crap the bed, but I don't see it happening. Hope that helped

Nothing. Nothing in the wiring touches ground, and external to the bulb, all the wiring is AC, so it should work normally and not hurt anything.

I have not had to replace any of the bulbs. I should think an electrical/lighting supply house can provide new bulbs. That said, it has been my experience, each time a lamp goes out it is the result of a wire shorting to ground. The wires are routed from the electrical driver to the bulb through the bulb mounting plate. The holes are very small. It seems these wires are particularly vulnerable to chafing and abrasion.
