If your handy with a soldering iron you could unsolder it from the board and solder a new one in. Failing that you could swap the whole assembly if you can pick one up cheap. check ebay.

dont' replace it with one from ultraleds. it'll blind you everytime you use the mainbeam!

there's no soldering involved. it isn't even a led. it's something different with a blue little cap on the top. Simple to change just pull the old one out and replace it.

I'll second what dizzie says, no solering required purchased mine from local VAG dealership would also suggest replacing dash bulds at the same time
