Additional Notes

The Nissan 200SX uses sealed beam units across its earlier model years and transitions to replaceable halogen bulbs in later years. Sealed beam types, including H6024, H4651, H4652, H4656, and H6054, require full unit replacement rather than individual bulb replacement, as the lens, reflector, and filament are fused into a single assembly.
The H6024 is a 7-inch round sealed beam unit operating at 12V. It serves both high and low beam functions on the 1977-1979 Nissan 200SX, meaning a single unit type covers both lighting roles for those years.
The 4x6-inch rectangular sealed beam format is represented by three distinct ANSI types in these specifications: H4651, H4652, and H4656. On the 1980-1983 200SX, high and low beam positions do not share the same unit type, which means the two positions are not interchangeable despite sharing the same physical form factor.
The H4652 is noted as a variant of the H4651. It appears exclusively in the low beam position for the 1981 200SX, while the H4651 fills the low beam role in 1980 and 1982-1983. Substituting one for the other without confirming ANSI equivalency could result in incorrect light output.
The H6054 is a 5x7-inch rectangular sealed beam unit used in both high and low beam positions on the 1984-1988 200SX. Because both positions share the same unit type across those years, a single replacement part covers either position.
The 9004 bulb is a dual-filament halogen type with a P29t base, rated at 12V with 65W for high beam and 45W for low beam. It serves both high and low beam functions on the 1995-1997 200SX within a single bulb housing.
The 1998 Nissan 200SX uses the 9007 bulb for both high and low beam. The 9007 shares the dual-filament halogen design with the 9004 but uses a PX29t base and carries a higher low beam wattage of 55W compared to the 9004's 45W. The differing base types make the 9004 and 9007 physically non-interchangeable despite their similar roles.
All bulb and sealed beam types listed across the full model range operate on a 12V electrical system, conforming to ANSI standards applicable in the United States and Canada.
