headlamps seems to be like blur or fogging (?)

Hi... I just wanna ask a question. Since i hv changed my front headlamps to 100/90 watts (un-coloured bulbs), the front headlamp's optic is like -well- smoke in the inside.. so it's not bright like new.

I'm affraid that the reflector and the optic doesn't strong enough to handle high-watts bulbs. how to clean it up? thanks

It is smoked on the inside? You may be burning up your wires and connector with those high wattage bulbs... you may want to take a look at your headlamp wiring and connector. Also, if you do have high wattage bulbs you may want to turn your lights off while waiting at the stoplight. The get no cooling airflow and they will heat up the housing quicker. Post some pics.... A picture is worth a thousand words.
