    100W is only 8 Amps so I would say the relays will be OK....

    But the wires will get hot. Not so much from the extra current (even a 22 gauge wire can do 15A or so), but from conduction of the extreme lamp heat down the copper strands.

    And we had someone in here last year that melted his reverse lights with a high power bulb.
