The Polaris Sport headlight bulb specifications include a 894 size bulb for high beam and 9003 size bulb for low beam applications. The replacement chart covers vehicle production years from 1998 to 2000 with corresponding bulb size data.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Polaris Sport uses the 894 bulb for high beam headlights across the 1998-2000 model years. This is an ANSI-standard single-filament halogen bulb rated at 12V and 37.5W, fitted with a PGJ13 base.
The 9003 bulb serves the low beam headlight position across the same 1998-2000 span. Unlike the 894, the 9003 is a dual-filament halogen bulb, which means a single bulb contains two separate filaments within one envelope.
The 9003 operates at 12V with a 60W/55W rating, where the higher wattage corresponds to the high-beam filament and the lower to the low-beam filament. Its base type is P43t.
The 894 and 9003 use different base types, PGJ13 and P43t respectively, making them physically non-interchangeable with each other despite both being 12V halogen bulbs.
The 9003 bulb type is functionally equivalent to the H4 designation used in international markets, though the 9003 designation reflects the ANSI standard applicable in the United States and Canada.
The 894 bulb's single-filament design means it serves only one lighting function per socket, which is why the Polaris Sport uses it exclusively in the dedicated high beam position rather than in a combined role.
