Wife has a 981 2012 Boxster 2.7 with standard headlamps.

The dipped beam has gone on one of them - is this a full sealed unit to replace or is it a simple bulb?

If it’s a full sealed unit is it only available from the dealer or is there a Porsche parts outlet I can use?

Sorry may be obvious questions but it’s the first time it’s needed attention out of warranty.

Thanks in advance.
