Another potential problem is the 9004 connectors are very small and cannot
transfer much current - thus you will not find any brand name bulbs that
are 100W!  The best bet it to bite the bullet and cut the 9004 connector
off and install a H4 connector.  NEVER NEVER use crimps to fasten the wire
as they will corrode.  Always solder the connections, apply a small amount
of lithium greese for water-proofing and seal it with heak shrink tubing.
Takes a little while to do but it will be a perfect connection 20 years
from now.
