The 9008 bulb is the sole bulb type listed across all headlight positions in the Ford Freestyle specifications, appearing in both high beam and low beam roles for the 2005-2007 model years.
The 9008 follows the ANSI standard recognized in the United States and Canada, classifying it as a regulated halogen light source with defined performance parameters.
As a dual-filament halogen bulb, the 9008 contains two separate tungsten filaments within a single glass envelope, with one filament dedicated to high beam output and the other to low beam output.
The 9008 operates at 12 volts and carries a wattage rating of 65W for the high beam filament and 55W for the low beam filament, reflecting the differing luminous output requirements of each function.
The 9008 uses a P26t base, which is a prefocus-style connector that aligns the filaments to a fixed optical position within the headlight housing.
Because the Ford Freestyle (2005-2007) uses the same 9008 bulb for both high and low beam positions, a single replacement bulb type serves both headlight functions on this vehicle.
The 9008 bulb is also cross-referenced as H13 in some markets, though the specifications here reference it strictly under its ANSI designation of 9008.
