AndyS Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Good morning all. R1150RT Does anyone know the part # for the plastic retainer that holds the H3 bulb in place? The part is held in place by a spring steel clip, but the plastic part that I need is what actually positions and holds the bulb in place. Link to comment
Lowndes Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 AndyS, Is this for a replacement bulb?? The parts diagram and list do not show anything similar to what you describe. I know that my new high beam LED bulb (Cyclops H7 LED) came with such a retainer to aid installing the bulb, install the retainer ring with the spring steel clips, then insert the bulb into it.

AndyS Posted December 28, 2016 Author Share Posted December 28, 2016 Hi Lowndes, You are right, the parts list does not show the retainer. That is what the problem is. Without this item the oem bulb cannot stay in the headlight housing. It is also this retainer that supplies the contact for the ground connection to the bulb. Link to comment
Crackenback Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) Here is the part number of the plastic hi beam bulb holder: 63 12 2 305 854 For some reason then part is not listed on the R11150RT parts breakdown. It can be found on the headlight breakdown for the K1200RS here under 63 - lighting. It's #3 03 63 12 2 305 854 BULB SOCKET Edited December 28, 2016 by Crackenback Link to comment
AndyS Posted December 28, 2016 Author Share Posted December 28, 2016 That is exactly the right bit. I knew someone knew. It has been raised on this forum before. Thanks Crackenback Link to comment
