Are you stock? Corner rewires? High output/high watt aftermarket bulbs?

My headlight harness also mets...I thought maybe it was just a cheap Matrix harness and I was going to get a Nokya harness. Any suggestions?

if the alternator is putting out too much amperage will it have to be replaced. I had my alternator replaced a little over a year ago in the 97 model alternator recall after my alternator failed on me twice in a matter of months.

it could also be the thign in the alternator taht control how much power goes out to the car. i know this can be replaced at a cheaper cost than the whole alternator.
