from what i've read/heard and my own experience, our bulb harnesses (this may just be for our headlights i'm not sure) are not designed to handle higher wattage. therefore i'm assuming that if you put a 12 watt bulb in a harness designed only to handle 5, your bulb will burn out and you may risk damaging your harness. hope this helps.

I wouldn't risk doing that. You do run the risk of burning the bulb and the harness and that'll be a real pain in the a$$.
