I work for a company that sells and fits light bulbs. I'm afraid that IMO you will not be able to upgrade to 100watt as your wiring will not take it. There is still a way to upgrade.

Bulbs are available that are called "Super Brilliance" and are up to 50% brighter than standard but do not increase the power rating. Your local car spares shop will have them. I have fitted them to my ZS and have noticed a massive difference :O
