Little Black Box!

Good Morning Folks!
I need a little help here...Last fall before storing my 85 GS the control arm bushing for my drivers side headlight up down mech snapped and ended up crushing this little black electrical box located behind the drivers side headlight...it looks like some kind of a relay...but I'm not sure. at the same time I replaced my stock lights with Cibie 100/80watt bulbs. saying that...every so often when I switch from low to high I get a delay in lighting (A delay longer than I'm comfortable with...I'm talking total darkness here!)...so what's the fix? is it the box? should I look at Victoria British after market headlight relay direct to the battery?
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Paul
