Additional Notes

The 9005 is the sole daytime running light bulb size listed across all Honda CR-Z model years in these specifications, covering 2011-2016.
The 9005 is an ANSI-standardized bulb type used in the United States and Canada, operating at 12 volts with a 65-watt output and a single filament.
The 9005 uses a P20d base, a two-pin connector configuration that is specific to this bulb family and is not interchangeable with other base types.
As a single-filament halogen bulb, the 9005 serves one lighting function per unit, which in this context is the daytime running light circuit exclusively.
The 2013-2016 Honda CR-Z specifications carry a conditional note stating the 9005 applies specifically to vehicles equipped with halogen capsule headlamps, indicating that not all trims or configurations within those years share the same fitment.
The 2011-2012 model years carry no such conditional note, suggesting the 9005 applied without a trim-level distinction for daytime running lights in those years.
The P20d base on the 9005 is a locking bayonet-style connector, which physically prevents substitution with visually similar bulbs that use different base configurations such as the HB3A or 9005XS variants.
