Arctic Cat Wildcat Trail high beam and low beam headlight bulbs both use 9003 size bulbs for optimal illumination. The replacement chart covers 2014 to 2017 model years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The 9003 bulb is the sole bulb type specified across all listed positions and model years for the Arctic Cat Wildcat Trail, covering both high beam and low beam headlight functions from 2014-2017.
The 9003 is a dual-filament halogen bulb, meaning a single physical bulb contains two separate filaments: one rated at 60W for high beam output and one at 55W for low beam output.
The 9003 operates on a 12V electrical system and uses a P43t base, which is a bayonet-style mount with a 43mm collar width.
The 9003 follows the ANSI standard applicable in the United States and Canada, distinguishing it from the functionally similar H4 bulb, which follows ECE standards used in other markets. These two types are not interchangeable despite sharing comparable electrical ratings.
The 2016 Arctic Cat Wildcat Trail carries a "With Halogen Capsule Headlamps" qualifier on its 9003 fitment, indicating that this specification applies specifically to vehicles equipped with that headlamp configuration.
