How do you determine what watt bulb to use in a 4 light bathroom fixture?

Unless it's in a palace, a bathroom probably won't need more than 240 watts in total, if they are incandescent bulbs, or 40-60 watts for CFL bulbs. Try four 15 w spiral CFLs. My bathroom is a small one with a 70 w halogen bulb.

Can you put 75 watts when 60 watts is recommended for fixture?
The fixture manufacturer goes on the side of safety. A 75 watt bulb puts out both more light and heat than a 60 watt bulb. It can make the fixture burn out sooner. For even more light, why don't you go with a florescent and get a 27 watt bulb that gives off the same amount of light as a 100 watt bulb? That will give off far less heat and be far better for your fixture?

One way to loosen a light bulb that is stuck in the fixture is to break the bulb. You can then use half of a potato to unscrew the bulb from the fixture. You can also make a loop with duct tape, adhere the middle of the loop to the light bulb. Use the two ends to twist the bulb out of the fixture.

How do you change the tag light on a 1998 Crown Victoria?
Very easy to do. Remove the two cap screws from the lens fixture (uses a 6mm socket, I believe). Very carefully use a flat tip screwdriver to gently pry the fixture from the underneath side of the trunk lid, and it should hang down with the light fixture attached to it. The fixture is made of a rubber-like plastic, so gently working it side to side will free it from the lens fixture. Remove the bulb from the light fixture by pulling it straight out (looks like an ancient camera bulb). You could use a 161 or 168 light bulb, but I used a 194 bulb (costs a little over $2.00 at O'Reillys) to reinstall into the light fixture. Going in reverse method, place the light fixture into lens fixture, and reassemble the lens fixture back to the trunk lid. Piece of cake!
I just noticed a hot spot under my bathroom tile floor that was not there before What is causing this It's hot when you walk over it?
if there a light fixture under the floor (on the ceiling of the room underneath) the heat will eventually rise. this is most frequent when there is an incandesent light fixture in an uninsulated floor (like a basement 100w light bulb is left on) something like 90% of electricity used by a 100w bulb is heat.
