The Polaris 700 XCR uses a 9003 bulb size for both high beam and low beam headlight applications. The replacement chart covers 1998 to 1999 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 9003 is a dual-filament halogen bulb operating at 12 volts, with a 60-watt filament for high beam and a 55-watt filament for low beam, mounted on a P43t base.
The ANSI 9003 standard applies to the United States and Canada, making it a North American market specification.
The Polaris 700 XCR uses the 9003 bulb for both high beam and low beam positions across the 1998-1999 model years.
Because the 9003 is a dual-filament type, a single bulb serves both beam functions rather than requiring separate bulbs for each lighting mode.
The P43t base is a bayonet-style fitting with a 43mm collar, and correct base type matching is necessary for proper physical fitment in the headlight housing.
The 9003 is functionally equivalent to the H4 bulb used in international markets, though the two designations originate from different standards bodies and packaging differences may affect direct interchangeability depending on the housing design.
