The Chevrolet Prizm high beam and low beam headlight bulbs both utilize a 9003 size. The replacement chart covers vehicle production years spanning 1998 to 2002.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Chevrolet Prizm uses the 9003 bulb for both high beam and low beam headlights across the 1998-2002 model years.
The 9003 is a dual-filament halogen bulb, meaning a single bulb contains two separate filaments to serve both the high and low beam functions within one housing.
The 9003 operates at 12 volts and carries a wattage rating of 60W on the high beam filament and 55W on the low beam filament.
The 9003 uses a P43t base, which is a three-pronged bayonet-style mount that physically locks the bulb into the headlight assembly.
The 9003 designation follows the ANSI standard applicable in the United States and Canada, distinguishing it from the functionally similar H4 bulb used under European ECE standards, which shares the same dual-filament halogen design but carries a different designation and may have minor base differences that affect interchangeability.
Because the same 9003 bulb specification applies to both beam positions across all five model years, a single replacement bulb type serves the entire headlight system of the Prizm for the full production run covered by these specifications.
