ok i got a 55watt off road truck light and the kit comes with wiring and an inline fuse and what ever waht im asking is will i keep blowing fuses or bulbs because the light isnt constantly going its like blipring(when i hit the gas it will get brighter and when i let off it will dim) so the power isnt constant. wil this hurt the lights?

You'll need a bigger stator to power the bigger light.
Ricky Stator sells a new higher watt stator. Stock is 35 watts I believe.

I have a 200S with a usable (not perfect) headlight and a stator (don't know if it's good or not but it LOOKS okay.
Cheap.
Interested?
