how many watts e36 headlight?
can I use the stock wires to hook directly up to the wireharness of the e36 headlight? And what is the watts the e36 lights low/high?

you can if you don't care about setting your car on fire. if you use the stock wiring with a high wattage bulb, you run the risk of melting your wires possibly setting your car on fire. just upgrade the wires and don't worry about.
i just finished my e36 conversion and upgraded the wire harness. |

Well you can get different wattage 9005/9006 bulbs just like you can 9004 bulbs(stock Maxima bulb).
If you use the factory wattage bulbs for the BMW you will be just fine. I am not 100% sure what the stock wattage is but do remember its about what the 9004 bulbs are. go to sylvania's web site for a listing of bulbs and their wattage. I remember reading it a while back. |
standard 9005 and 9006 are 45 and 55W, IIRC.
standard 9004 bulb uses 45 or 55W for low beam and 65W for high beam. |
How hard would these ones be to install?...Im fairly good with wiring...would I have to rewire my complete light system for these, or could I use relays?

they are not hard to install, just time consuming. i would use the relays and make an upgraded harness to handle the higher wattage.
also IMO the chrome ones look ugly. |
