What headlight bulb do I need for a Subaru Outback?

To determine the headlight bulb size for your Subaru Outback, you can refer to the information provided by AutoZone. The headlight bulb size can vary depending on the position, year, and trim level of your vehicle. Common selections for the Subaru Outback include H11, H7, and 9005 halogen bulbs. However, upgrades to LED bulbs are also available.
It’s important to note that the bulb size guide provided by AutoZone is for reference purposes and may not be 100% accurate. To confirm the bulb size for your specific vehicle, it is recommended to remove the bulb you wish to replace and compare the socket and size to the bulbs listed on their site.
Remember, when replacing headlight bulbs, it is recommended to replace both bulbs simultaneously to maintain uniform intensity and color on both sides for optimal performance.
