HID bulb has failed in my 2015 Vanquish.

Hi Guys

Please can you help? The HID bulb in my 2015 Vanquish has failed. I’ve looked in the hand book, it says the HID bulb is not replaceable. Is that the case, do any of you know if I can replace the bulb, or will I need to buy a new head lamp?

Thanks

Steve

The HID bulb is replaceable in the Vanquish, it is a standard D1S HID bulb,

Just make sure the lights are off when you change the bulb, and have been off for a few minutes. It's just Health and Safety gone mad!

That's interesting. My 2013 DB9 manual says the same thing, but then it listed the correct HID D1S 35W bulb under the "Specifications" section.
Not the 1st time these manuals are wrong - mine says I have 375 quarts of gas available, wow I wonder where they hid the other 305 quarts (288 Liters).

Here is a pic of the back of my headlight.
