HB3 9005 Halogen Headlight Bulbs | 9005 Headlight Bulb | HB3 Halogen Bulb Pair

You get two halogen headlight bulbs with the HB3 fitting. They are supplied as a pair so you can change both headlights at the same time. Nothing else, such as tools or connectors, is included.

Yes. HB3 and 9005 are two names for the same bulb fitting, which is why you will see both printed on packaging and listed in manuals. If your old bulb or your handbook says either one, this is the correct fitting.

Each bulb is 12 volts and 60 watts. That matches a standard 12 volt vehicle electrical system. Check the figures stamped on your old bulb before you order so you know they line up.

The most reliable ways are to look it up in the owner manual or to pull the old bulb out and read the marking on its base. Fitment here is by fitting type only, so the marking is what matters. If the old bulb does not say HB3 or 9005, this pair is not the right bulb.

We list these bulbs by fitting type rather than by vehicle, so we cannot say they fit a named car. Confirm the HB3 or 9005 fitting in your owner manual or on the old bulb, and if that matches, the shape will match. If you are unsure, ask us before ordering.

We do not claim an approval mark for this bulb, because we hold no approval document for it. If you need a bulb with a specific approval marking, check what is printed on the base of your old bulb and send us a message before you order.

That depends on how your headlight unit is wired, since the HB3 fitting is used in different positions on different vehicles. On many cars it is the high beam, but the only way to be sure is to check which bulb you are removing. The bulb itself is simply an HB3 halogen bulb.

You can, and plenty of people do. Many drivers prefer to fit both at once so the two sides look even, then buy a second pair for the boot. There is no technical reason you must fit both together.

Fitting a matched pair keeps both beams looking the same. It also saves you repeating the job a few weeks later when the second bulb goes.

On most cars it is a hand tool job once the dust cover is off the back of the headlight. You unclip the connector, release the retaining clip, swap the bulb and put everything back. Some vehicles have tight engine bays and need more patience or a wheel arch liner removed.

Usually not. A pair of clean gloves and sometimes a screwdriver for the dust cover is about it. If your headlight unit is hard to reach, your workshop manual will tell you what needs to come off first.

Oils from your skin can bake onto the hot glass and create a weak spot, which shortens bulb life. Hold the bulb by its metal base when fitting. If you do touch the glass, wipe it with a lint-free cloth and a little methylated spirit before fitting.

Yes, halogen bulbs get very hot in use. Switch the headlights off and let the bulb cool before you remove it, and keep anything flammable away from the back of the headlight unit. The same applies to the old bulb you have just taken out.

No. These are 12 volt bulbs and should only be used on a 12 volt system. Fitting a 12 volt bulb to a 24 volt supply is not suitable.

These are 60 watt bulbs, which is a common halogen rating for the HB3 fitting. The safest approach is to match the wattage printed on the bulb you are removing. If your old bulb shows a different wattage, check with us before ordering.

They are described simply as halogen bulbs with the HB3 fitting. If colour matters to you, contact us and we will tell you what information we hold.

We do not quote a lifespan for these bulbs, and real life varies a great deal with how often you drive at night and how rough the roads are. Halogen bulbs dim slowly rather than failing all at once, so many people change them when the light starts to look tired. Keeping a spare pair makes that easy.

We do not make brightness comparisons or quote output figures for this product. What we can say is that a fresh halogen bulb will generally look cleaner than one that has been in service for years. Fit both sides to judge the result fairly.

That is one of the most practical reasons to buy a pair. Keep them in their packaging in the boot, away from knocks and damp. A blown bulb then becomes a short roadside job rather than a problem for another day.

Leave them in the original packaging so the glass stays clean and protected. Store them somewhere dry and reasonably cool, not loose in a toolbox where they can rattle against metal. A glovebox or a padded corner of the boot works well.

It is worth a quick look at the connector and the fuse, since a bulb that fails early can point to a wiring or moisture problem. Also check the dust cover is seated properly, because water in the headlight unit shortens bulb life. If bulbs keep failing, have an auto electrician look at it.

Many people do. If you are comfortable opening the bonnet and following your owner manual, a bulb swap is one of the easier jobs on a car. If the headlight is awkward to reach on your vehicle, a workshop can usually do it quickly.

They use the standard HB3 bulb fitting, so they connect the same way as the HB3 bulb you are taking out. Compare the base of the new bulb with the old one before fitting. If the bases do not match, the old bulb was not an HB3.

Get in touch and we will talk you through it. Unused bulbs in their original packaging are the easiest to deal with, so please do not open the inner packaging until you have confirmed the fitting. Reading the marking on the old bulb first avoids the problem entirely.

We dispatch within 2 working days. Delivery then takes up to 7 working days by tracked courier, anywhere in Singapore. It is free on orders of $100 or more and a flat $25 below that, shown in your cart before you pay. You get a tracking number by email once the parcel is dispatched.

Yes, within our standard returns window, provided the bulbs are unused and in their original packaging. Because bulbs are easily marked by handling, keep them sealed until you are certain the fitting is right. Contact us first and we will send return instructions.

Do not touch the glass with bare fingers, do not force a bulb that will not seat, and do not work on a hot headlight. Also avoid leaving the dust cover off, since moisture inside the headlight unit causes trouble later. Take an extra minute to check everything is clipped back properly.

If the fitting turns out to be wrong or the bulbs are not what you needed, contact us with your order number and we will sort it out. Unused bulbs in sealed packaging can be returned under our standard policy. We would much rather help you get the correct bulb than have you fit something that does not belong.

No separate warranty is sold. The Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act applies in full, and faulty items are put right. Contact us with your order number and a photo and we will sort it out.

Yes. You have 15 days from purchase to change your mind under our refunds and returns policy. Contact us first, keep the original packaging and leave the item unused until you are sure it suits.
