Yes and no.  You'll have to watch how many amps you're going to be pulling.  You could safely go up to 65w or 75w but I don't think I'd put 100's in there.  You'd need to make sure the relay, wiring and fuse are up to snuff.

thanks jeffy. i'll get some 75's. i'll make sure the wiring is all good. i've done a few pairs b4. just not jumped the bulb wattage.
