Sony's VPL-CW255, CW256, CW258, CW259 and the related CX235, CX236, CX238 and CX239 projectors, along with the VPLCW258 naming variant, all run on the LMP-C240. It draws 245 watts and is rated for around 3000 hours, and this listing supplies the complete module with housing attached.
With nine model numbers sharing one lamp, it is worth double-checking whether your unit is a CW or CX variant before ordering, since the two model families look similar on the case label. LMP-C240 is the only code recorded for this lamp, so there are no alternative part numbers to weigh up here.

Common questions
What is the difference between the CW255 and CX235 versions of this projector?
Both take the same LMP-C240 lamp regardless of whether your unit is from the CW or CX line. The model letter affects the projector's features, not which lamp it needs.
What wattage does the LMP-C240 use?
245 watts, with a rated life of about 3000 hours under Sony's own specification for this lamp. These figures are identical for both the module and bare versions of the LMP-C240, since it is the same bulb in each case.
Is the housing part of this listing?
Yes, this is the module version, so the bulb and housing arrive as one assembled unit ready to fit. There is no need to transfer any part of your projector's existing cage across to the new lamp.
Do I need to do anything to the projector's lamp timer after fitting this?
Many Sony CW and CX projectors display a lamp warning once the counted hours are reached, with a reset option in the on-screen setup menu. Check your specific model's menu after fitting, as the exact path differs between firmware versions.
How do I check I've picked the right one of these nine models?
Look at the model number printed on the underside or rear panel of your projector and match it letter for letter against the CW255, CW256, CW258, CW259, CX235, CX236, CX238 or CX239 range listed above.
This is a complete module — bulb already seated in its housing, so it drops straight in.
