The Can-Am Defender Max high beam and low beam headlight bulbs both utilize an H8 size. The replacement chart covers 2017 to 2019 vehicle production 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 H8 is a single-filament halogen bulb operating at 12 volts and 35 watts, fitted with a PGJ19-1 base and rated under the ECE standard, which governs lighting regulations across Europe and numerous other markets worldwide.
Although the H8 carries ECE certification, it also holds approval for use in the United States, making it a bulb type that meets regulatory requirements across multiple regions.
The Can-Am Defender Max uses the H8 bulb for both the high beam and low beam headlight positions across the 2017-2019 model years.
Because the high beam and low beam positions share the same H8 specification, both circuits draw identical wattage and use the same physical base type, which is relevant when sourcing replacement bulbs.
The PGJ19-1 base is specific to the H8 and is not shared with several other common halogen types such as the H11 or H9, which use a PGJ19-2 base despite a similar outward form. Substituting an incompatible base type would result in an improper fit.
