Default Watt question

i was just wondering, i have an 04 wrx and i cleared out the headlights and put superwhite bulbs in them, the high beams are 60 watt but i just realized that the bulb that i got is a 65 watt, its a 9005 bulb, i was just wondering if this higher watt is going to cause any damage to the car, like melt the wiring harness or anything like that, thanks in advance

You'll have no problem with that wattage - it's within the normal tolerance for the standard bulbs.
