I haven't looked very close yet, but the bulbs look like regular car bulbs on newer vehicles.... Look around on the bulb for some #'s and see if any match up at wal-mart or wherever.

I was considering getting the "blue" bulbs that shoot out the really freaking bright white light... we'll see

Been there already, the base on the bulb seems to be different than any automotive bulb. I pulled mine out and tried to match it up to no avail. If you happen to find a replacement let us know. Oh btw be careful not to get a hotter bulb, as it can and does melt the housing due to the extra heat of the higher wattage bulb.....Rob

Well call me crazy but,I own a 2002 "cobalt blue" Kawaski Lakota Sport 300 and always wanted to get a blue headlamp bulb to match the color .Well the problem is the wire connector on the quad is diff to those of automobile bulbs.So I came up with an idea and went to a junkyard and bought a headlamp wire connector from a 1998 crown victoria (those that have hi/lo beam on the same bulb because the lakota only has one headlamp bulb).I installed the automobile wire connector on my quad(negative,hi,and low beam wires)and bought those XENON BLUE headlamps and wualaah!!!! . Almost every time that i go to the track somebody asks me what kind of headlamp bulb am i using it looks so blue(cool) and brighter makes my LITTLE BLUE MULE look apart from the crowd.
