Landing light?

Is an owner allowed to change (replace a defective) landing bulb.
Does it require an AP sign off?

Yes, an owner can do it, provided the owner holds a pilot certificate.
No, an A&P is not required. I do not see anything that permits an
individual non-pilot owner to perform preventative maintenance.

Chapter and verse is quoted below. Part 91 says who CANT. Part 43 goes
ahead and says who CAN perform maintenance.
