Of course you can replace the bulb, we're not in the era of the £40 throw away spotlight yet!:

(from the manual)

Word of warning: the threads on most of the screws are fine pitch and very prone to corrode. Lots of penetrating fluid the day before and the day itself, and use the correct screwdriver. Coppaslip on re-assembly will help prevent further issues.

hi fingers, when i originally took it apart..thinking the bulb had gone, upon further inspection.. all the reflective stuff had worn off, soooo.... if i buy a new foglight itself, am i right in thinkin it is THAT that has the reflective stuff in it?

Certainly there's a reflector in there, but I'm surprised it could be so bad that you thought the bulb had gone. Try the bulb, see if rinsing out the insides (with the bulb out) helps. Sometimes they just get loads of muck in there.
