Hey, new to the forum and have a 2018 Kymco Like 150i as noted in the subject. I have an issue where the "normal" low beam headlight is out, but the high beam is working, so it appears that I need to replace the bulb. I have a shop that does work on scooters but they want me to purchase the bulb (I'm not comfortable taking apart the front/rear cover to get at the bulb) and then they'll do the replacement. I don't mind paying for it as I have some other stuff I want to get checked out at the same time.
Can someone point me to an Amazon link/listing for a replacement bulb that is known to be the correct replacement? I can't find any specifications on the bulb itself -- most places just say to pull it and then match it ...

That's what I do - never had any problems.

you may be able to look through your headlight lens at the bulb and see writing on the bulb base. On my S200 I can see the bulb says Philips HS1 35W/35W. Very small writing. I've attached a closeup pic

Get the correct bulb from your Kymco dealer. Refer to shop manual or maybe even owner's manual for instructions.

Thanks for all the replies! The dealer I had been going through has pretty much shutdown (not answering the phone, not responding to e-mails, etc) because of Covid, etc, but I managed to finally find another local place to get parts. It's a bit of a drive, but at least I can get the parts I need (which seems to be more and more of a struggle these days ...)

If you know the bulb specs, seems like NAPA or other auto parts store could get you one?

Right - all Kymco bulbs are standard auto parts, and any reasonable auto parts shop has them.
