It is sold without housing, for owners transferring the bulb into the housing already fitted inside their unit rather than replacing the whole assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA module version of this same lamp, complete with new housing, is also available for those who would rather not handle the transfer themselves; this listing is the lower-cost bare-bulb option.
