Toyota Land Cruiser Fog Light Bulb Size

Additional Notes

• The Toyota Land Cruiser front fog light specifications list two distinct bulb types across the covered model years: the H16 and the 9006, both of which are single-filament halogen bulbs operating on a 12-volt system.
• The 9006 is governed by the ANSI standard, which applies to the United States and Canada, and draws 55 watts through a P22d base, making it a significantly higher-wattage bulb than the H16.
• The H16 follows the ECE standard used in Europe and other worldwide markets, draws only 19 watts, and uses a PGJ19-3 base, which is physically incompatible with the P22d socket used by the 9006.
• Because the H16 and 9006 use different base types, the two bulbs are not interchangeable, and fitting one in place of the other is not possible without modifying the socket.
• The Toyota Land Cruiser used the 9006 bulb for its front fog lights across the 1998-2007 model years, representing the longer of the two fitment periods covered in the specifications.
• The H16 bulb applies to the 2013-2015 model years of the front fog light position, with no entry present for 2012 in the provided data.
• The wattage difference between the two bulbs is substantial: the 9006 at 55 watts produces considerably more heat output than the 19-watt H16, a factor relevant to housing compatibility and bulb handling.
• Single-filament construction in both the H16 and 9006 means each bulb serves only one lighting function, as opposed to dual-filament types that combine two functions such as low beam and parking light within a single unit.
