Additional Notes

The H8 is a single-filament halogen bulb operating at 12 volts and 35 watts, built to the ECE standard used across Europe and internationally, with approval also granted in the United States.
The H8 uses a PGJ19-1 base, which is a specific bayonet-style fitting that physically restricts interchangeability with bulbs using different base types, even those that may share similar wattage or voltage ratings.
The Chevrolet Cruze front fog light takes an H8 bulb across the 2011-2018 model years.
The H8 belongs to a family of halogen bulbs that includes the H9 and H11, all of which share the PGJ19 base series but differ in wattage and locking tab positions, meaning substitution between them is not straightforward despite their physical resemblance.
At 35 watts, the H8 is the lowest-wattage member of the PGJ19 base family, a factor relevant when considering socket and wiring load tolerances in the Cruze fog light circuit.
