Additional Notes

The Nissan Armada front fog light specifications cover three distinct bulb types across the 2005-2020 model years: the H8, H11, and 899.
The H8 and H11 are ECE-standard halogen bulbs, meaning they were originally developed for European and worldwide markets but carry US approval as well. The 899 follows the ANSI standard, which is specific to the US and Canada.
All three bulb types are single-filament halogens operating on a 12V system, making them conventional low-voltage automotive bulbs rather than high-intensity discharge or LED units.
The H8 and H11 share a similar PGJ19 base family but are not interchangeable. The H8 uses a PGJ19-1 base, while the H11 uses a PGJ19-2 base. The numerical suffix indicates a physical difference in the base that prevents cross-fitting.
The 899 uses a PGJ13 base, which is a different base family entirely from the H8 and H11, making it incompatible with sockets designed for either of those bulbs.
The Nissan Armada (2017-2020) takes the H8 bulb at 35W for the front fog light, which is a lower wattage than both the H11 and the 899 used in earlier model years.
The H11 bulb, specified for the 2011-2015 Armada, draws 55W, making it the highest-wattage fog light bulb across all listed model years.
The 899 bulb, rated at 37.5W, was the front fog light specification for the 2005-2010 Armada, placing its power output between the H8 and H11.
The 2007 model year carries a production date qualifier, with the 899 bulb noted specifically for vehicles built up to April 2007, indicating a mid-year specification that installers should account for when sourcing a replacement.
