Yes, and you'll have less of a chance of cracking due to heat. That's a big bonus!

In my case, I'm running Hella's ECodes with 80/80 PIAA H4's. They definitely throw off a lot more heat than the stock 55/60w, and they get water in them quite often. Hence, they're cracked!

With all the rain that happened in Arizona, a lot of the rivers and washes have far more water than I've seen in 15 years. I've had plenty of opportunity to get water inside the housing. With the winter runoff occurring, it's even worse now than it was before.

So, once I get my summer runs out of the way, I'll likely go with another set of either Hella's or IPF's and the PIAA or IPF bulbs.
