I noticed the other day one of my rally lights not working. I saw a piece of metal stuck between the outside metal cover and the glass. I think that piece of metal is probably a spring that holds the light tight.
So my question where do I get another light and is it dissembled by undoing the screw at the bottom?
There is a little spring clip i believe that presses against the ring to hold the reflector in place. I would undo the bottom screw and see whats going on. And see if that bulb is burned out.

Any suggestions on how to undo the screw on the bottom? I don't want to strip the screw, but I have put in a lot of muscle and it just is not budging.
Okay, after alot of banging with screw driver, hammer and chemicals I was able to take it apart. The sealed bulb looks fine so I can't really tell if it's bad, but I am going to say it is since I made contact with a deer. He bent the base down and I had to straighten it out.
Reading the bulb it says on the back: 03102002
The lens reads as: JUTE 9614 HR (E 13) 10
040261
Those are the bulbs linked above just pop out that sealed beam front and pop the bulb out the back. Otherwise if its beat up from the dear you might have to get a whole unit.
