Not to burst your bubble, but the H4 headlight has nothing to do with the clearance nor the bumper lights. And the H4 isn't going to be that large of an improvement to constitute brighter bumper or clearance lights, search for the thread where you can have your clearance lights brighter, but adding more wattage to these lights is pointless.

My bubble is still intact. I was just asking cuz I ordered some bulbs and the wattages are as follow- 27w=1156, 27w/8w=1157, and 5w=194. I just want to make sure that it isn't going to make my factory harness melt especially with the H4 Xtravisions. I'm not trying to make them brighter, just trying to make sure they're safe.

Yes they are, they have a seperate harness. 1157 are dual filament and are what the 95/6 requires stock since they have a functioning clearance light when the signal is activated.

Keep that bubble safe and sound...

Those are the wattages of (I believe ALL 1156/1157/194 bulbs) every one of those bulb types I've ever seen.
