All I've been able to find is that spec is 30A of excess capacity with high beams and A/C on. ROAR! My guess based upon fusing and the electrical diagrams I have seen is 120A, but I could be wrong. I would rather know what i'm dealing with before I swap the stupid thing out. RARRGRRR! ROAR! And so on.

bob impact Silver Member Username: Bobimpact Danbury, CT US Post Number: 224 Registered: May-06	Posted on Friday, October 27, 2006 - 13:44 GMT Nope. I'm thinking I'll need around 200A so I'll probably just end up going for an aftermarket, but we'll see, my winter car got sold out from under me so everything else is on hold until I can find one.
