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 worldwide, with approval also extended to the United States market.
The H8 uses a PGJ19-1 base, a pin-style fitting specific to lower-wattage halogen applications. This base type is not interchangeable with other common automotive halogen bases such as H11 or H9, despite those bulbs sharing a similar physical appearance.
The Chevrolet Equinox uses the H8 bulb for its daytime running lights across the 2016-2017 model years.
