Toyota Supra high beam and low beam headlight bulbs utilize 9005 and 9006 sizes respectively, with H6054 bulb options available for both positions. The replacement chart covers vehicle production spanning 1986 to 1998 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 Toyota Supra uses three distinct bulb types across its headlight specifications: the 9005, 9006, and H6054. All three conform to ANSI standards applicable in the United States and Canada, and all operate on a 12-volt electrical system.
The H6054 is a 5x7-inch rectangular sealed beam unit, meaning the lens, reflector, and filament are fused into a single assembly. When the filament fails, the entire unit requires replacement rather than just an internal bulb.
The Toyota Supra (1986-1993) uses the H6054 sealed beam unit for both high and low beam functions. A single unit type serves both lighting roles in those model years, as the H6054 is a dual-function sealed beam.
From 1994 onward, the Supra transitioned away from sealed beam units to discrete halogen bulbs, with the 9005 assigned to the high beam and the 9006 to the low beam. These two bulb types are not interchangeable with each other despite their similar appearance.
The 9005 is a single-filament halogen bulb rated at 65 watts with a P20d base, while the 9006 is also a single-filament halogen bulb but rated at 55 watts and fitted with a P22d base. The differing base types physically prevent cross-installation between the two.
The wattage difference between the 9005 and 9006 reflects their respective roles. At 65 watts, the 9005 produces a higher-intensity output suited to high beam use, while the 55-watt 9006 is calibrated for the controlled, lower-angle projection required of a low beam.
The P20d and P22d base designations refer to the bayonet-style locking collar on each bulb. The numeric portion indicates the collar width in millimeters, which is the primary physical factor preventing one bulb from seating in the other's socket.
The 1993 Toyota Supra represents a transitional point in the headlight specifications, as it is the final model year to use the H6054 sealed beam unit before the 1994-1998 models adopted the 9005 and 9006 halogen bulb configuration.
