Default replace low beam 06 base

Low beam on drivers side stopped working today. My manual says dealer fix only, I can't understand why.
I want to stay with original dis bulb, can anyone provide a link for replacement.
Can't seem to find what I'm looking for.
Thank you

There are 2 small brass screws that have be removed to get the bulb out. THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENTS that I know found. They are a reaL PITA.

I have my original AW set in storage. Was going to swap low beams.....be damned if I could get the connector off. And this was working with light on table. Dealer ended up installing low beams for me.

Amazon has lots of choices.

Not that hard to do really. I always swap in 6k bulbs in my Vettes. I have a few sets of OEM low beams for sale.
