Nissan Rogue high beam headlight bulbs utilize H9 or 9005 size specifications, while low beam headlight bulbs require H11 or D2R size bulbs. The replacement chart covers vehicle production spanning 2008 to 2020 with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The H9 bulb is a single-filament halogen type rated at 12V and 65W, built to the ECE standard with a PGJ19-5 base. The Nissan Rogue uses it as the high beam bulb in halogen capsule headlamp configurations from 2014-2020.
The 9005 bulb is a single-filament halogen type rated at 12V and 65W, built to the ANSI standard with a P20d base. It serves as the high beam bulb in the Nissan Rogue from 2008-2013.
Although the H9 and 9005 share the same 12V/65W electrical rating, their bases differ, with the H9 using a PGJ19-5 fitting and the 9005 using a P20d fitting. These two bulbs are not interchangeable despite their identical wattage.
The H11 bulb is a single-filament halogen type rated at 12V and 55W, built to the ECE standard with a PGJ19-2 base. It is the low beam bulb across all Nissan Rogue model years listed in the halogen headlamp configuration, spanning 2008-2020.
The D2R is an HID (xenon) discharge bulb rated at 85V and 35W, with a P32d-3 base. Its designation indicates it is designed specifically for reflector-type headlamp housings, and it requires an external ignitor to operate, unlike the halogen bulbs in the same specifications.
For the 2008-2013 Nissan Rogue, the low beam position accommodates either an H11 halogen bulb or a D2R HID bulb depending on which headlamp system is installed. These two bulb types are not interchangeable, as they operate on fundamentally different electrical systems.
The H9 and H11 bulbs both follow the ECE standard and carry US approval, but their base types differ. The H9 uses a PGJ19-5 base while the H11 uses a PGJ19-2 base, making them physically incompatible with each other's sockets.
From 2014 onward, the Rogue's high beam specification lists only the H9 with no HID alternative, while earlier years from 2008-2013 used the 9005. This reflects a base type change between generations that affects direct part substitution.
