Re-seal with any silicone, bathroom stuff will suffice.

H3 bulb at Halfords.



Make sure and bend the retaining spring on re-install, lots of pressure, this stops them blowing.

If you have the H8 Halogen 12v/35w bulbs in your passing lamps they are probably part no. 68453-05 like these below and £20.00 each from your nearest HD dealership.



However there is a much cheaper and much brighter alternative ... 12v/27w Xenon Super Brights.



On ebay they are £6.94 a pair from Aceparts UK who are a top-rated UK seller as well.

I believe the fitment style is 881 so if you type 881 xenon in the search you'll get plenty of choice.
