The Chevrolet HHR headlight bulb uses a 9008 size for both high beam and low beam applications. The replacement chart covers vehicle production years spanning 2006 to 2011 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 9008 bulb is the sole bulb type listed across all headlight positions in the Chevrolet HHR specifications, covering both high beam and low beam functions for the 2006, 2007, and 2011 model years.
The 9008 is a dual-filament halogen bulb, meaning a single bulb contains two separate filaments to handle both high and low beam output rather than requiring two separate bulbs per housing.
The 9008 operates on a 12-volt electrical system and draws 65 watts on the high beam filament and 55 watts on the low beam filament.
The 9008 uses a P26t base, which is a specific pin-and-collar connector type that determines physical fitment into the headlight socket.
The 9008 designation follows the ANSI standard applicable in the United States and Canada, classifying it as a regulated bulb type with defined performance and dimensional requirements.
The Chevrolet HHR uses the same 9008 bulb for both the high beam and low beam headlight positions, which is a direct result of the dual-filament design serving both functions within a single unit.
The 9008 and H13 designations refer to the same bulb type, with 9008 being the ANSI designation and H13 being the ECE designation used in other markets; these are interchangeable references to the same component.
