The common setup for a 2007 Honda CR-V sold in North America uses two separate halogen bulbs: a 9006 low-beam bulb and a 9005 high-beam bulb. If your CR-V has fog lights, those typically use H11 bulbs. Differences can occur by market or trim, so verify with your manual or the bulb itself.
Headlight bulb configurations vary by region and trim level. This guide outlines the typical North American configuration and the alternative options you might encounter in other markets, plus a quick how-to for verification.
North American headlight configuration
In most US/Canada CR-V models from 2007, the headlight assemblies use separate bulbs for low and high beams. Replacements are straightforward once you know the two bulb types you need.
- Low beam bulb: 9006 (HB4)
- High beam bulb: 9005 (HB3)
- Fog lights (if equipped): H11
Most NA-spec 2007 CR-V owners will replace the low beam with a 9006 bulb and the high beam with a 9005 bulb, with fog lights using H11 if the vehicle has them. Always confirm using the old bulb or the owner's manual.
Market variations and alternative bulb types
Some international or earlier-trim CR-Vs used a single dual-beam bulb in each headlight housing (the H4/9003 family) that serves both low and high beams, or other region-specific bulb sets. If your vehicle is not a US/Canada spec, the bulb types may be different.
Dual-beam configuration in some markets
- Dual-beam headlight bulb: H4 / 9003 (HB2) used in some markets or early models
- Other regional variants: can include different front-end lamp assemblies; verify with VIN-specific parts data
Because bulb configurations vary by market, trim, and production year, check the exact specification for your vehicle. The fastest check is the bulb label or the owner's manual, or ask a Honda dealer with your VIN.
How to verify the exact bulb type for your CR-V
To be sure you buy the correct bulbs, verify with the following steps before purchasing replacements.
- Consult the owner's manual’s bulb replacement section for the exact part numbers.
- Inspect the existing bulbs—part numbers are often printed on the base or glass.
- If you cannot access the manual, contact a Honda dealer or use your VIN to pull the exact specification from official parts catalogs or reputable parts retailers.
With those checks, you can confidently source the correct 9006/9005 bulbs (or an alternative) for your 2007 CR-V.
Summary
For most 2007 Honda CR-Vs sold in North America, headlamps use separate low and high beams: 9006 for low beam and 9005 for high beam, with H11 fog lights if equipped. Other markets may use a dual-beam H4/9003 setup or different configurations. Always verify with the owner's manual or the vehicle’s bulb label to confirm exact requirements.
