What's it look like? No pic

2d lamp electrical store or wholesalers would have.

You pulled the complete unit, the lamp should pull away from the holder, it looks well burnt and may well be a new fitting needed depending.

Pull away from holder, if it doesn't and it's fused together it will need a new fitting.

Its got pins in it so it just pulls straight out no turning or sliding for example.
