Headlight bulb source?

For my Bx, I had to replace one of the marker lights in back. It was the same thing, the bulb from Kubota cost a fortune. I just went to an auto parts store and got something off the rack that looked close, cost something like $2.

Trust me - from my searching, there is nothing close enough to this bulb, and in a headlight you have less ability to use something "close" and still get decent lighting.

Here you go. You can find them on Amazon, about $7 a pair. Eiko Light Bulbs - Headlight - 12V - 25/25W - Mfg/N A-3603 - Card A-3603-BP There is also a 30/30 watt bulb that are used in ATV's but are more expensive.

For the Bison 650G, the headlight glassy assembly is manufactured by Stanley. The bulb is an Eiko 48008, which is an A-3603 bulb, dual filament, 25w/25w. I found it using the A-3603 number cheapest on Amazon for $1.60 + shipping.

For those that are interested in a brighter bulb than the factory, they are available. Here is one source

For bulbs that can not be found in auto supply shops don't overlook a motorcycle or ATV supplier as many that NAPA and such term 'oddball' actually are cycle bulbs. (and usually better than 1/2 the tractor dealer's price)

HA! Found it! Man was that painful. I saw something close in the Parts Unlimited catalog (Thanks for that idea Ken!) and it was made by Eiko, so I went to Eiko's page and searched there. Found it in a list of motorcycle/snowmobile lamps. The magic number is A-3603, and here is a link to one source of them, but now that the number is known you can search on that:

A-3603 - 25/25 Watt, 13/13 Volt T-6 Recreational Vehicle Bulb | Bulbs.com

$0.69/ea plus $6 flat shipping, so I think I'll get a few...

You sir, IMHO b d man!!!

Is there an LED bulb available that would work here?
