Hi all.

Trust me to find something arcane like this.   ;)

On a recent trip, my new back up light failed. Images/text:

At the time, I didn't realize that this is a standard H3 bulb which
can be found at your local FLAPS.

I purchased a spare Hella bulb. It appears to have the same potential
flaw as the original unlabeled bulb. Some pics:

Easy fix but and the bulb itself may be just fine, but have to wonder
about bulb longevity given what appears to be lazy workmanship or poor
tooling design.

Neil.
