Well, the problem got much worse, with the bulb going out quite frequently, so I started with the easiest option - replacing the bulb.

Did that last night and all was well on the way in for 30 miles or more, until I hit a big pot hole and the bulb went out again. It came on after switching off, but then went off again a minute later. So probably not the bulb!

So where do I find the ballast? And how do I swap them over?
