Hyundai Elantra Coupe Headlight Bulb Size

The Hyundai Elantra Coupe uses H7 and H1 bulbs for high beam headlights, while low beam headlights require 9005 and H11 bulbs in their respective sizes. The replacement chart covers 2013 to 2014 model years with corresponding bulb size specifications.

Additional Notes

The Hyundai Elantra Coupe uses three distinct halogen bulb types across its headlight positions: H7, H1, 9005, and H11. All four are single-filament designs, meaning each bulb serves only one lighting function rather than combining high and low beam in a single unit.
The H7 and H1 bulbs both operate at 12V and 55W and share ECE certification, which is the regulatory standard used across Europe and much of the world. Both are also approved for use in the US and Japan, giving them broad international acceptance.
Despite their similar electrical ratings, the H7 and H1 bulbs use different base types. The H7 uses a PX26d base while the H1 uses a P14.5s base, making the two physically incompatible with each other even though they draw the same wattage.
The 9005 bulb follows the ANSI standard used in the US and Canada rather than the ECE standard. It operates at 12V but draws 65W, which is 10 watts more than the H7, H1, and H11 bulbs. Its base type is P20d.
The H11 bulb operates at 12V and 55W under the ECE standard and uses a PGJ19-2 base. It holds ECE approval worldwide and is also approved in the US, though it does not carry Japanese approval in the same way the H7 and H1 do.
For the 2014 Elantra Coupe, the low beam bulb type depends on the headlamp configuration. Vehicles fitted with projector-type headlamps use the 9005 bulb, while those without projector-type headlamps use the H11. These two bulbs have different bases and wattages and are not interchangeable.
The high beam bulb also changed between model years on the Elantra Coupe. The 2013 model uses an H1 for the high beam, while the 2014 model uses an H7. The differing base types between these two bulbs means a direct substitution between years is not possible without a fitting change.
The low beam position is the one consistent point between the two model years. Both the 2013 model and the 2014 model without projector-type headlamps use the H11 bulb, sharing the same base type, voltage, and wattage.
