The Peterbilt 210 high beam and low beam headlight bulbs utilize H6054, 9004, and H4651 or H4652 sizes depending on beam type and configuration. The replacement chart covers 2008 to 2009 vehicle production years 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 Peterbilt 210 for model years 2008-2009 accommodates three distinct headlamp configurations: a two-rectangular-headlamp setup, a four-rectangular-headlamp setup, and a halogen capsule headlamp setup. Each configuration requires a different bulb type, and substituting one for another is not supported by the specifications.
The H6054 is a 5x7-inch rectangular sealed beam unit operating at 12V and conforming to ANSI standards applicable in both the United States and Canada. Because it is a sealed beam design, the entire unit is replaced rather than an internal bulb, and it serves both high beam and low beam functions in the two-rectangular-headlamp configuration.
The 9004 is a dual-filament halogen bulb rated at 12V with a power draw of 65W on the high beam filament and 45W on the low beam filament. It uses a P29t base and also meets ANSI standards for the US and Canadian markets. A single 9004 bulb handles both beam functions in the halogen capsule headlamp configuration.
The four-rectangular-headlamp configuration uses 4x6-inch sealed beam units, all operating at 12V under ANSI standards. Like the H6054, these are full-unit replacements rather than serviceable bulb types.
Within the four-rectangular-headlamp configuration, the high beam and low beam positions are not interchangeable. The H4651 is specified for the high beam position in 2008-2009, while the low beam position uses the H4652 in 2009 and the H4656 in 2008, indicating that beam-specific variants must be matched to the correct housing position.
The H4652 is described as a variant of the H4651, both being 4x6-inch sealed beam units. Despite their physical similarity, the specifications assign them to different beam functions, which reflects differences in internal reflector or filament geometry that determine beam pattern.
The halogen capsule configuration is the only one among the three that uses a replaceable internal bulb. The sealed beam types, H6054, H4651, H4652, and H4656, require full assembly replacement, which is a servicing distinction relevant to parts procurement.
All bulb types listed across both model years and all three configurations are rated at 12V, consistent with standard automotive electrical systems.
