For most 2010 Camrys with standard halogen headlights, the low-beam bulb is H11, the high-beam is 9005, and the fog lights (if equipped) are H11. This guide covers the typical US-market setup, with notes about variations for other markets or trims.
Common bulb sizes by function
The following list shows the most commonly used bulb types for a 2010 Camry's headlights and lighting features.
- Low beam (dipped): H11
- High beam (bright): 9005
- Fog lights: H11 (if your model has factory fog lamps)
Note: Some vehicles, markets, or aftermarket headlight configurations may use different bulbs. Always confirm by inspecting the bulb installed in your headlight or by checking the owner's manual or a trusted parts catalog for your VIN.
How to replace and verify
Before you replace any bulb, ensure you have the right tools and that the engine is off and the headlights are cool. Using gloves can help prevent oils from your skin from shortening bulb life.
- Open the hood and locate the headlight assembly; remove the dust cap and unplug the electrical connector.
- Release the old bulb by turning or uncliping the retaining mechanism, then carefully remove it from the socket.
- Install the new bulb, making sure it is oriented correctly to match the old bulb, reconnect the connector, and reseal the dust cap.
- Test the headlights to confirm the new bulb works and then close the hood. If the beam looks misaligned, have the headlights professionally aimed.
After replacement, verify the beam pattern and alignment to ensure safe nighttime visibility. If you’re unsure about the process, consider a professional installation.
Market and trim variations
Because bulb specifications can vary by market and trim level, the sizes above may not apply to all versions of the 2010 Camry. If your vehicle differs from the typical US halogen setup, confirm the exact bulb type using the current bulb, the vehicle manual, or a dealership/parts retailer with your VIN.
- Check the bulb currently installed in the headlight housing to confirm size.
- Consult the owner’s manual or a Toyota service bulletin for your specific market/trim.
- Use a reputable parts retailer or dealer with your VIN to ensure the correct bulb type.
Bottom line: Start with the common sizes (H11 for low beam, 9005 for high beam, and H11 for fog lights if equipped), but verify to avoid purchasing the wrong bulb.
Summary: The typical bulb sizes for a 2010 Toyota Camry with halogen headlights are H11 for low beams, 9005 for high beams, and H11 for fog lights where equipped. Always double-check with your manual or VIN-specific guidance, as some markets or trims may use different bulbs.
