The Dodge Nitro high beam and low beam headlight bulbs both utilize a 9008 bulb size. The replacement chart covers vehicle production spanning 2007 to 2011.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Dodge Nitro uses the 9008 bulb size for both high beam and low beam headlights across all model years from 2007-2011.
The 9008 is a dual-filament halogen bulb, meaning a single bulb contains two separate filaments: one rated at 65W for high beam output and one rated at 55W for low beam output.
Because the 9008 handles both beam functions within one unit, the Dodge Nitro (2007-2011) does not use separate bulbs for high and low beam operation.
The 9008 operates on a 12V electrical system, which is standard for passenger vehicles in this class.
The 9008 bulb uses a P26t base, a single-contact bayonet-style fitting designed specifically for dual-filament automotive headlight applications.
The 9008 designation follows ANSI standards recognized in both the United States and Canada, indicating a standardized specification for bulb geometry, wattage, and light output.
The 9008 is also commonly cross-referenced as H13, and these designations refer to the same bulb type, though fitment should be confirmed against the original specification before substitution.
