Polaris Trail Headlight Bulb Size

Polaris Trail high beam headlight bulbs measure 894 and 9003 in size, while low beam headlight bulbs measure 9003 in size. The replacement chart covers vehicle production spanning 1993 to 1999 with corresponding bulb size specifications.

Additional Notes

The two bulb types specified for the Polaris Trail are the 894 and the 9003, both of which conform to ANSI standards recognized in the United States and Canada.
The 9003 is a dual-filament halogen bulb with a P43t base, rated at 12V and drawing 60W on the high-filament setting and 55W on the low-filament setting. Its dual-filament design allows a single bulb to serve both beam functions within one housing.
The 894 is a single-filament halogen bulb with a PGJ13 base, rated at 12V and 37.5W. Because it carries only one filament, it is dedicated to a single lighting function rather than switching between beam modes.
The low beam headlight position uses the 9003 bulb across all model years from 1993-1999.
The high beam headlight position on the Polaris Trail shifted from the 9003 bulb in 1993-1994 to the 894 bulb in 1995-1999, meaning the two production periods require different bulbs for that position.
The PGJ13 base of the 894 and the P43t base of the 9003 are physically incompatible with each other, so the two bulb types are not interchangeable regardless of wattage or voltage similarities.
For the 1993-1994 model years, both the high beam and low beam headlight positions share the same 9003 bulb specification, whereas 1995-1999 models require two distinct bulb types across those two positions.
