Best Replacement Headlight Bulbs?

My wife has a 98 Crown Vic and the 80 watt bulbs didnt settle too well with the circuit breakers, seemed to draw more heat than they liked, after about 6 mths, the lights started flashing, and went haywire, pulled them back out and didnt have a problem since. I havent seen any schematics on this Bonneville yet, do they have the breaker type circuit protect, and does anyone know what they are rated at? And gauge of wire?

Good start, bud!
