the whole light is pretty cheap, but it says you can order just the bulb. Call them they are pretty helpful.

Ya it's confusing. There is noway to replace just the bulb, looks like you have to replace the entire headlight assembly. Only $15 each so it's not a big deal but still we should be able to go right into a auto parts store and buy a freakin bulb for these, but you can't, have to order and wait for a whole new headlight assembly.

Whoops, shoulda checked your link, $11 each.

You could also change them over to a more common bulb housing or LED lights. More initial investment, but they should last the life of the buggy.

call them, it says " bulb can be ordered separately"

I know it says that but it is not possible to replace just the bulb. The bulb is part of the harness, cant be removed.

Gotcha.

After doing some reading I am just going to stick with stock headlights. I'm just going to order the whole new assembly and just live with it. Doing any upgrade just isn't worth the cost and time for me. New assemblies are only $11.

I did discover that the original bulbs are 25w. The new assemblies have 35w, so that's at least a small plus.
