Cilian's suggestion is certainly worth investigating, i.e. is your context the replacement of defective lamps or the change to new technologies?

bulb change

Steht üblicherweise in den englischen Autohandbüchern, die ich zum Übersetzen bekomme. Auch dann, wenn es sich um Halogen- oder Xenon- oder sonstige Leuchtmittel dreht, die nicht wirklich Glühbirnen sind.

use different bulbs

in the course of developing new headlights, they stop using one kind of bulb and switch over to a different kind.

You'd have to provide at least a sentence of context to see how to best phrase it in English.
