you want them as bright as a headlight...? you'll need to modify your harness and add a relay to be able to support the amp setup. you can't just stick a 110 bulb in there and call it a day.

i don't condone your idea in anyway but it can be done, you'll have to search the internet a little harder to find out exactly how but basically consider the idea of wiring up another set of headlights to do it.

may luck be with you..

you'll also have to worry about the higher wattage bulbs melting the lens too. That's a lot of heat for a lens that wasn't designed for it.
