My nearside dipped headlamp is flickering quite badly and in getting the warning in the dashboard about it.

If this most likely to be a bulb or the HID module ( or whatever it’s called) ?

Is this all part of the headlamp unit along with the led lights or are these parts available separately?

Easy to replace or a garage issue?

Thanks in advance MY 2010 vantage coupe

Thanks, I'm thinking its the Ballast/HID bulb that needs replacing rather than then LED board to be honest. I see the ballast and bulb are available at AM bits and its much cheaper than the full unit.

Thanks for your help though, I appreciate it.

The ballast is exactly the same as in many Fords and cost peanuts on ebay.

I used D1S xenon bulbs from a company called Lunex on all my European cars (BMW, Audi and Aston) they are really good
