3G Bulb Type Chart

Ok guys.. since everyone has been talking about the different types of bulbs and stuff for cleared headlights, turn signals, rear turns, etc... I decided to make one big happy post with all of the information. Here is a chart listing every 3G TL bulb type and size:


For LED bulbs this sight has 24 LED bulbs in the Amber color:
V-LEDs - http://www.vleds.com/

This site seems to be the most common. All of these bulbs seem to be good.
Autolumination - http://autolumination.com/7443_7440.htm

Here is another site with LEDs
Super Bright LEDs - http://www.superbrightleds.com/tail-brake-turn.html

DONT FORGET... If you are going to use LEDs for turn signals, you need a 6ohm 50 watt (minimum) resistor added to the line. You will need one per light.
Looks like this:




For NON LED applications, one might want to think about these... They are the chrome lens with color application:

Hope this helps people out instead of having to go back and forth between a few different threads.

That doesn't make sense...

- The rear tail/brake lights ARE LEDs on te TL... as are the side markers, yet those bulbs are listed.

- the rear turn signals are not dual filament.

This is not specifically for LEDs this is just the sizes of bulbs in the car whether they be LED or not...

Agree with Kennedy

Your chart needs some work.

He's correct regarding the tail/stop already being an LED assembly, not bulbs of any type. Only the turn signals are bulbs.

Also headlamp high is HID-D2S. The headlights are Bi Xenon, one bulb only. 9005 isn't used anywhere on the car.

9005 is used in the Canadian models for the DRL ( we get DRL where the fogs go in the US model )

Sylvania appears to have made a common error and not updated its charts. The 2004 and 2005 chart shows the 7443 bulb for the tail light and stop light, while the 2006 chart shows both use an LED. The Acura parts list, of course, shows the same LED part number for 2004-2006.

All the charts show the erroneous information for the headlamps, though.

Check out the Sylvania web site.

What should really cause you to is the fact that none of these companies can get their info right, despite the fact that they probably get it from the manufacturers (or if they don't, they could). How hard can it be to get a complete, correct list of bulbs for a car?

apparently it is pretty hard.... either that or they just did it to make me look like an idiot....

I vote for the latter...
