The common bulb sizes for a 2015 Honda Accord with standard halogen headlights are H11 for the low beams and 9005 (HB3) for the high beams; fog lights, if equipped, typically use H11. If your Accord has HID headlights, the bulb type will be different (usually D3S or another HID variant), so always verify with the owner’s manual or by inspecting the existing bulb.
Bulb sizes by lighting function
These are the typical sizes by function for most 2015 Accords. Markets and trims can vary, so confirm before purchasing a replacement.
- Low beam: H11
- High beam: 9005 (HB3)
- Fog lights: H11 (if your model is equipped with fog lights)
When replacing bulbs, consider replacing in pairs where appropriate to maintain uniform brightness and color across the same lighting circuit.
Variations for HID/LED or different markets
Some 2015 Accord variants or export markets may use HID or LED headlights. In those configurations, the bulb types are different (for HID, typically D3S or D2S/D1S) and not H11/9005. Always consult the owner’s manual or check the current bulb to confirm the correct type for your specific vehicle.
Replacement tips and safety
Before replacing bulbs, ensure the engine is off and the headlight switch is in the off position. Handle bulbs with gloves or a clean cloth to avoid skin oils on the glass, and allow any overheated components to cool before touching.
- Open the hood and access the headlight behind the bumper or via the wheel well, depending on trim.
- Disconnect the electrical connector, remove any retaining clip or socket cap, and twist the bulb counterclockwise to release.
- Install the new bulb, reconnect the wiring, and test the headlight before closing the hood.
Ensure the bulb is seated securely and the wiring is clear of any moving parts before operating the vehicle.
Summary
For 2015 Honda Accord models with halogen headlights, use H11 for low beams and 9005 for high beams, with H11 for fog lights if equipped. HID or LED headlights require different bulb types (such as D3S for HID). Always verify with your owner’s manual or by inspecting the existing bulb to ensure you get the correct size for your exact trim and market.
