    My Fuse keeps blowing on my headlights ever since i installed my HIDS. Can i upgrade to a 20 fuse in a 04 GTP? Or is there another way to solve this problem?
    Thanks

    NEVER PUT IN A BIGGER FUSE UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR CAR TO BURN DOWN.

    Your insurance company will also laugh at you if they find out.

    I think what I read is that the 04+ have reverse polarity, so that would explain the fuse popping. Contact the manufacturer, but they'll probably tell you to plug in the harness backwards.

    As stated before, do NOT put in a bigger fuse.

    the only possible way you could put in a bigger fuse is if you rewire the entire thing. Like stated above just use a wiring harness. If you are doing this then you can try to reverse the polarity like stated above and that should solve the problem. Reversing the polarity in my friends grand am was the trick for his vehicle.
