Wattage question on headlight harness upgrade on XJ

Planning on doing the headlight wiring harness upgrade on my '96 XJ and went ahead and ordered one from LMC Truck, says 100/90W on the package.

Since then I've decided I'll probably run the Silverstar 55/100 bulbs.

Can you run bulbs rated at 55/100 on a wiring harness rated at 90/100? Are the two mismatched and would there be any problems?

Thanks

The only thing you need to be concerned with as respects the wattage is that the wattage rating on the harness is equal to or larger than that of the bulbs.

In the stated case, the bulb's rating is not higher than the harness so you are okay from that standpoint.
