I haven't run into anyone that runs the 100w yet, but my dealer told me there is a separate coil winding for accessories which is kinda cool. PIAA makes a lite that is 55w but is way brighter. A few guys have said so. Part # ABA-70023-00-00

The PIAA lights listed above go in place of the factory headlamp bulbs. I'm sure The Speed Shop or Port Parts sell these. As far as aftermarket.....I'm guessing about 130-140 bucks for the pair and where is that aux lighting coil....not a clue. I was just told about it,not shown. I'll see if I can find out. Maybe someone here knows?

100 watt lights
the 55 watt lights are your best bet i have 100 and cannot run them for extended periods of time or will drain battery.

So, these just take place of the original bulbs for my Yami Grizzly? Has anyone tried these? Are they high/low lights? I'm extremely unsatisfied with my stock headlights.

Just FYI, 55watts = 4.3 amps.
I think adding 2 / 100watts would stress the OEM charging system
I'm working on a HID conversion kit

I would caution anyone with any ATV, NOT to use more than a single "pair" of 55 watt lights at any time.
110 watts of "additional" electrical load to the normal night riding load is running at the limit of practical risk.
Side Note #1:
Use of any winch "while" any ATV is running can result in an overloaded charging system under certain circumstances. I advise against it. Use the winch for a time, then start up and recharge for a timem. Cycle between winching and re-charging. I have seen expensive failures many times from this.
Side Note #2:
If you are one of the unfortunate souls who have purchased and installed the "ProCom Rectifier/Regulator" aftermarket module, don't even plan on using the OEM lighting without the risk of failure and a long walk.

I would install a set of "independantly controlled" lights (not over about 120 watts total). Off road or tractor lights are constructed a bit more durable.
Mount and wire them to the plow or its brackets, high up enough to be able to see. Then when you hook up to the plow, you can just plug in that dedicated set of lights and run WITHOUT the OEM lights. Since they are not doing any good with the plow on, why run them at all?
I would select a set of lights that have a replaceable halogen bulb. They are inexpensive and widely available.
The flood style light pattern would be better for this type of use than a spot or oval beam.
