I run rally bulbs in my S1, no problems in years, quite a few guys do but a couple (Mr Sanj & Mr Rolfe?) have melted their connectors. :thumbsup

I've ran them for years and, yeah, I've got a melted connector on one side now. That said, it's taken years to do it and it's available for pennies from Halfrauds. IMO the light output is worth it.
