Honda Ridgeline Bulb Size Guide
Choose the model year and light position, then match the installed lamp. Start with the LED bulb options below or jump to Honda’s original 2024–2026 or 2021–2023 bulb specifications. Low beam, high beam, fog and daytime running lights can have different equipment on the same truck.
High beam · 2017–2020 low beam · 2017–2020 fog · Signals and resistors · 2024–2026 bulb sizes · 2021–2023 bulb specifications · Factory equipment · Reverse and plate references
2017–2026 Ridgeline high-beam LED options
Diode Dynamics lists these exact White pairs for the original halogen high-beam position on the 2017–2026 Ridgeline. Its product application calls the bulb 9005; the original 2024–2026 Honda chart prints 60 W (HB3). These products do not replace an integrated LED headlamp or a factory HID bulb.
SL2 White pair — DD0463P · SL2 Pro White pair — DD0481P.
Does your high beam also run as a DRL? Honda’s 2024–2026 manuals say models without LED parking lights share the high-beam bulb with the DRL. Diode Dynamics’ current fitment table says its high-beam bulbs run at full brightness in DRL mode, while an older answer on the same page says they should dim normally. High-beam fit is listed, but the DRL brightness remains unresolved. Confirm that operating behavior before choosing these bulbs for a shared high-beam/DRL circuit. Models with LED parking lights have a separate LED DRL branch.
2017–2022 high-beam catalogue alternatives
Morimoto and GTR list the 2017–2022 Ridgeline high beam in the catalogues for these exact White pairs. Match the original bulb, base, connector and housing clearance. Those catalogue entries do not establish DRL brightness or extend these options to 2023–2026.
Morimoto 2Stroke 4.0 9005 pair — Pure White · GTR Ultra 3.0 9005 pair — 5750K.
2017–2020 Ridgeline halogen low-beam LED options
For 2017–2020 original halogen H11 low beams, Diode Dynamics lists SL2 White and SL2 Pro White. Match the low-beam equipment independently of the high beam. These older applications do not replace the LED low beams in Honda’s 2024–2026 chart or establish a 2021–2023 application.
SL2 White pair — DD0467P · SL2 Pro White pair — DD0483P. Choose White for this headlamp application; the Yellow SL2 selector below belongs to the qualifying fog application.
2017–2020 selected-trim low-beam catalogue alternatives
The Morimoto and GTR H11 catalogues also list selected 2017–2020 Ridgeline trims for low beam, without naming the eligible trims. Use these options only after confirming the original replaceable H11 low-beam bulb and the product’s installation requirements.
Morimoto 2Stroke 4.0 H11 pair — Pure White · GTR Ultra 3.0 H11 pair — 5750K. These entries do not prove compatibility with a factory LED assembly.
LED headlight conversion bulbs may not comply with FMVSS/CMVSS requirements for on-road use. Check applicable state and provincial laws before use.
Headlight source and installation details
The Diode Dynamics high-beam application and low-beam application specify original halogen equipment and list installation with basic tools and no modification. The high-beam source’s conflicting DRL descriptions are retained above; neither description is silently treated as a confirmed operating result.
The selected suppliers state their conversion bulbs are not DOT compliant for headlamp use on public roads in the United States. Follow each product’s installation and intended-use instructions. Generic optional anti-flicker accessories on a catalogue page are not proof of a particular Ridgeline DRL result or a vehicle-specific included component.
Honda’s 2024–2026 manuals describe replacing the halogen high-beam bulb and handling it by the base. Driver-side access involves the engine-compartment cover and air-intake duct. The LED low beam uses separate dealer light-assembly service information; that service instruction does not make the replaceable high beam an LED assembly.
2017–2020 Ridgeline H8 fog-light LED options
These Diode Dynamics options are listed for the original replaceable H8 fog bulb on the 2017–2020 Ridgeline. Identify the fog lamp itself. They do not replace an integrated LED fog assembly, and this application does not extend to 2021–2026.
Choose the exact SL2 fog option: SL2 White pair — DD0467P · SL2 Yellow pair — DD0468P. SL2 Pro is not part of this fog application’s listed options.
H8 XP80 Cool White pair — DD0187P · H8 HP48 Cool White pair — DD0180P. HP48 is a cosmetic upgrade only.
The H11 catalogue alternatives pictured above include separate Ridgeline fog entries. Those references do not resolve the difference from the Diode Dynamics H8 application. Match the installed fog bulb and obtain confirmation for the exact replacement; the shared H8/H9/H11 product-family name does not prove interchangeability.
2017–2025 turn-signal references and required resistors
Diode Dynamics names 7440 for the 2017–2025 front and rear turn-signal applications, with specific 7443 LED products listed as replacements. The front options are amber; the rear options are amber or red according to the lens. These source-specific replacements do not create a general 7440/7443 interchange rule or a 2026 application.
For these BCM-controlled turn-signal applications, use one separate 6-ohm resistor for each turn-signal bulb replaced. A general LED flasher option does not replace this requirement. The resistor kit below is an accessory and contains no bulbs.
Diode Dynamics LED resistor kit — Pair, DD4025. The kit contains two resistors and four splice connectors. Connect to the turn-signal circuit and ground as instructed. Resistors get hot during prolonged operation; keep them away from plastic, wiring and fabric.
The amber front-turn applications do not establish white parking output or continuous-DRL support. On a truck whose front bulb also supplies parking light, confirm that function for the replacement. No switchback bulb is presented here as a Ridgeline application. The separate rear-turn application does not establish stop or tail-light compatibility.
2024–2026 Ridgeline original exterior bulb sizes
These specifications come from the three exact annual Honda manuals for vehicles sold in the United States and Canada. 2026 prints bulb designations for the front turn/parking, reverse, rear turn and plate positions; 2024 and 2025 print wattage only for those rows. An earlier wattage is not a socket number. The later code does not, by itself, prove a physical bulb change.
| Position as printed | 2026 Honda specification | 2024 and 2025 Honda specification | Equipment note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Headlights (Low Beam) | LED | LED | No separate condition printed |
| Headlights (High Beam) | 60 W (HB3) | 60 W (HB3) | No separate condition printed |
| Fog Lights | LED | LED | No separate condition printed |

| Rear License Plate Lights | 5 W (W5W) | 5 W | No separate condition printed |
| Bed Lights | LED*3 | LED*3 | Models with AC power outlet |
| Bed Lights | 5 W*4 | 5 W*4 | Models without AC power outlet |
* = not available on all models. *1 = with LED parking lights; *2 = without LED parking lights; *3 = with AC power outlet; *4 = without AC power outlet. These describe the actual equipment, not an assumed trim. Watts are not vehicle bulb counts.
The combined Brake/Taillights/Rear Side Marker Lights row is LED. Reverse and rear turn are separate replaceable positions; both print W21W in 2026. Bed lights have their own LED or 5 W branch and are separate from the LED high-mounted brake light. A generic “LED brake lights” feature does not make every rear light an integrated LED.
Which Ridgeline bulbs share parking or DRL functions?
| Installed equipment — 2024, 2025 and 2026 manuals | Daytime running light | Parking light |
|---|---|---|
| Without LED parking lights | Shares the halogen high-beam bulb | Shares the front turn-signal bulb |
| With LED parking lights | Separate LED service branch | LED service branch |
Use the installed parking-light configuration to identify the branch. The shared functions are not additional bulb quantities. Honda recommends dealer assembly service for LED low beam, LED parking/DRL, front side markers, fog lights, optional mirror signals, combined brake/tail/rear markers and the high-mounted brake light.
Replacing the other exterior bulbs
Honda describes access to the replaceable front turn/optional parking bulb through the inner fender. Its rear procedure treats reverse and rear turn as separate bulbs, and its plate procedure describes a removable bulb. Use the specification for the exact annual manual; removal screws and clips are not bulb quantities. The LED assembly instructions apply only to the listed LED functions.
2021–2023 Ridgeline original exterior bulb specifications
The original 2021, 2022 and 2023 Honda manuals list the same equipment conditions and specifications below. A wattage without a bulb number does not identify a socket. Match the installed lighting equipment and keep the LED assembly branches separate from replaceable bulbs.
| Light position | 2021–2023 Honda specification | Equipment condition |
|---|---|---|
| Headlights (Low Beam) | LED | No separate condition printed |
| Headlights (High Beam) | 60W (HB3) | No separate condition printed |
| Fog Lights | LED | No separate condition printed |
| Front Turn Signal/Parking* Lights | 28/8 W (Amber) | Not available on all models |
| Parking Lights* | LED | Models with LED parking lights; not available on all models |
| Front Side Marker Lights | LED | No separate condition printed |
| Daytime Running Lights | LED | Models with LED parking lights |
| Daytime Running Lights | 60W (HB3) | Models without LED parking lights |
| Side Turn Signal Lights (on Door Mirrors)* | LED | Not available on all models |
| Brake/Taillights/Rear Side Marker Lights | LED | No separate condition printed |
| Back-Up Lights | 21 W | No separate condition printed |
| Rear Turn Signal Lights | 21 W | No separate condition printed |
| High-Mount Brake Light | LED | No separate condition printed |
| Rear License Plate Lights | 5 W | No separate condition printed |
| Bed Lights | LED | Models with Truck Bed Audio System |
| Bed Lights | 5 W | Models without Truck Bed Audio System |
Shared functions: on models without LED parking lights, the daytime running lights use the high-beam bulbs, and the parking lights use the front turn-signal bulbs. The chart does not state vehicle bulb quantities.
2021–2023 Honda equipment and source notes
2021 Honda Ridgeline owner’s manual, specifications on printed page 574 (PDF page 575), with replacement instructions on printed pages 508–513 (PDF pages 509–514).
2022 Honda Ridgeline owner’s manual, specifications on printed page 574 (PDF page 576), with replacement instructions on printed pages 508–513 (PDF pages 510–515).
2023 Honda Ridgeline owner’s manual, specifications on printed page 574 (PDF page 576), with replacement instructions on printed pages 508–513 (PDF pages 510–515).
Models with LED parking lights have LED daytime running and parking lights. Bed lights are LED with the Truck Bed Audio System and 5 W without it. These are equipment conditions, not marketing-trim assignments. Asterisks mark equipment not available on all models.
Honda specifies dealer inspection and assembly replacement for the LED low beams, front side markers, fog lights, door-mirror side turns where equipped, brake/taillights/rear side markers and high-mounted brake light. A removable high-beam procedure is provided for the 60 W HB3 halogen bulb. The front turn/parking specification is Amber; its 28/8 W rating does not supply a socket number.
These 2021–2023 references do not extend any supplier product application or fill wattage-only entries with numbers from later manuals. Interior lighting is outside this exterior table.
2020 Ridgeline original exterior bulb specifications
For 2020, the low beam and bed lights depend on whether the truck has the Auto high-beam system. Use the equipment notes below; a wattage without a bulb designation does not identify a replacement socket.
| Position as printed | 2020 Honda specification | Equipment note |
|---|---|---|
| Headlights (Low Beam) | LED*1 | Models with Auto high-beam system |
| Headlights (Low Beam) | 55 W (H11)*2 | Models without Auto high-beam system |
| Headlights (High Beam) | 60W (HB3) | No separate condition printed |
| Fog Lights | 35 W (H8) | No separate condition printed |
| Front Turn Signal/Parking* Lights | 28/8 W (Amber) | Not available on all models |

| Bed Lights | 5 W*2 | Models without Auto high-beam system |
*1 = with Auto high-beam system; *2 = without Auto high-beam system; *3 = with LED parking lights; *4 = without LED parking lights. Other asterisks mark equipment not available on all models.
2020 shared functions, lamp service and Honda source
On models without LED parking lights, the daytime running lights use the high-beam bulbs, and parking lights use the front turn-signal bulbs. Models with LED parking lights have LED daytime running and parking lights. These are equipment-specific shared functions.
Honda provides replacement procedures for the halogen headlamps, front turn/parking bulbs, H8 fog bulbs, rear turn and reverse bulbs, and license-plate bulbs. The LED low beam, front sidemarker, door-mirror signal, brake/tail/rear sidemarker and high-mounted brake light use dealer assembly service. Follow the original instructions for the installed equipment.
The 2020 bed-light notes refer to Auto high-beam equipment. They do not use the Truck Bed Audio System distinction shown for newer years above. The existing product applications on this page retain their separately stated years and equipment limits.
2020 Honda Ridgeline owner’s manual, specifications on printed page 568 (PDF page 570), lamp service on printed pages 501–506 (PDF pages 503–508). Watt-only entries remain without an inferred bulb number.
2026 factory lighting: Canada and United States references
The trim names and equipment listings differ between the two Honda specifications. The tables below describe factory equipment; they are not shopping-country restrictions. Included represents Honda’s marked feature cell. Not marked preserves a blank and does not prove halogen equipment or that the feature is absent.

Keep the DRL branches separate: the Canadian sheet marks LED DRLs for Sport, TrailSport and Black Edition. The U.S. LED DRL row is blank for Sport and RTL and marked for the four listed TrailSport/Black Edition configurations. The Canadian Sport feature is not transferred to a U.S. Sport, and a blank U.S. cell alone does not identify its DRL bulb.
The Canadian “LED headlights” feature does not replace the manual’s separate halogen high-beam specification. The U.S. sheet explicitly names LED low-beam headlights. Generic truck-bed-light markings do not establish LED technology: use the separate LED bed-light row or the manual’s power-outlet equipment condition.
The U.S. features-by-trim sheet also lists integrated LED mirror turn indicators for RTL, TrailSport, TrailSport+ and Black Edition through its stated trim additions. This is the mirror position, separate from the replaceable front turn-signal bulb.
Signal, reverse and plate manufacturer references
These Diode Dynamics entries preserve the application’s actual years and the product families it names. They are separate from Honda’s original chart. Match the installed function and lens; do not extend a 2025 endpoint to 2026.
2017–2025 Ridgeline license-plate LED pairs
Diode Dynamics lists these Cool White 194 pairs for 2017–2025 Ridgeline license-plate lamps with an original removable bulb. Choose HP5, HP3 or SMD2; each listing contains two bulbs. Check the installed lamp quantity. SMD2 bulbs are polarity-specific. This supplier application ends at 2025.
Supplier order lead time: 1–2 days when in stock at Diode Dynamics.
| Position | Exact supplier years | Supplier designation and options | Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Front turn | 2017–2025 | 7440 application; 7443 amber HP48 / HP11 / XP80 pairs | One separate 6-ohm resistor per replaced turn bulb. The source names the turn function, not a switchback parking or continuous DRL application. |
| Rear turn | 2017–2025 | 7440 application; 7443 amber or red HP48 / HP11 / XP80 pairs | Amber for clear/amber lenses; red for red lenses. HP48 is cosmetic-only in this rear application. One separate 6-ohm resistor per replaced turn bulb; no stop/tail application is implied. |
| Reverse | 2017–2026 | 7440 application; 7443 Cool White HP48 / HP11 / XPR pairs | HP48 is cosmetic-only. The 2026 Honda chart retains W21W. A related resistor advertisement does not establish a Ridgeline reverse-resistor requirement. |
| License plate | 2017–2025 | 194 application; SMD2 / HP3 / HP5 white pairs | SMD2 is polarity-specific. Cool White, Pure White, Natural White and Warm White are listed in distinct SKU options; not every family has every color. The original 2026 W5W row does not extend this 2025 supplier endpoint. |
Exact Morimoto and GTR catalogue year and position entries
The following product-catalogue entries retain the exact years, positions and trim qualifiers. Selected trims remain unnamed, and separated year groups remain separated. Their H11 fog references do not resolve the H8 designation in the Diode Dynamics 2017–2020 fog application.
| Product family | Exact pair SKU | Literal catalogue years | Trim qualifier | Listed position |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Morimoto H11 | 2 x LED2020 | 2006-2014, 2019-2020 | No trim qualifier printed | Fog Light |

Ridgeline bulb questions
Does a Ridgeline with LED headlights still have a replaceable high beam?
The 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026 Honda manuals list an LED low beam and a separate 60 W (HB3) high beam. Use those position-specific details instead of treating “LED headlights” as a specification for every headlamp function.
Can I use a 2026 bulb number for a 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 or 2025 truck?
Several 2026 rows add bulb numbers where the 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 manuals give only watts. Those older rows remain watt-only here. Check the actual old bulb marking or an exact application for the year and position; the later printing alone does not establish interchangeability.
How many bulbs or resistors are in the package?
Each shown bulb package contains two bulbs. Select the light position you are replacing. The separate signal-resistor kit contains two resistors, with one needed per replaced turn bulb. The Honda chart gives wattage and equipment conditions, not vehicle bulb quantities.
