Identify this bulb
Can anyone tell me what bulb this is? I'm trying to put some ultra white bulbs in my 02 Harley edition and it has some kind of aftermarket glass housing in it. I have tryed a couple sizes with no luck. Any help would be nice. Thanks in advance.

Looks like a H1 bulb in a different base.
Does the bulb itself pull out of the base?
BTW, that is not an aftermarket housing, that is what came stock on the HD edition.

I just tried, and yes it does! So, do you think it is an h11 base? The seals are getting dry rot and I would like to replace them. I guess I could always just use a o-ring. Thanks so much for sending me down the right path. I just assumed that it was aftermarket, with all the problems identifying the right bulbs.
apart from the back side of the bulb saying H11 or H8 or similar, the tab ears will tell you what bulb they are



my suggestion is to go to Oreilly or Autozone and look at the tab ears. The H11 and H8 are distinct. And while they are distinct, theyre actually interchangeable if you cut the tabs to fit the lamps
