The 2016 Toyota Camry generally relies on standard halogen bulbs for its exterior lighting, with specific sizes varying by trim and market. For most models, low-beam headlights use H11, high-beam headlights use 9005, and fog lights (if equipped) use H11. Always verify the exact bulbs on your vehicle using the owner’s manual or the lamp housing label.
Core exterior lighting: headlights and fog lights
This section outlines the primary bulbs used for forward lighting on most 2016 Camry trims. Individual configurations can differ by region and package, so use this as a guide and confirm for your car.
- Low beam headlights: H11
- High beam headlights: 9005 (HB3)
- Fog lights (if equipped): H11
Note: Some trims may substitute different bulb types or use HID/LED assemblies for headlamps. Always consult the owner's manual or the label on the headlight housing for your exact configuration.
Other exterior lighting: signals, tail lights, and more
Turn signals, tail lights, and backup lights are housed in separate assemblies. The exact bulb sizes can vary by trim and regional specifications, so verify with your manual or a parts diagram for your vehicle. The following categories cover common possibilities without assuming a specific size for every trim.
- Front turn signals and parking lights: varies by trim (commonly part of the 7440/7443 family in many Toyotas)
- Rear turn signals and tail/brake lights: varies by trim
- Backup lights: varies by trim
Because the precise bulb types for these lamps differ across Camry trims and markets, check the lamp housing label or owner’s manual to ensure you buy the correct replacements.
Summary
For a 2016 Toyota Camry, expect low-beam headlights to be H11, high beams to be 9005, and fog lights (if your model has them) to be H11. Other exterior bulbs—such as turn signals, tail lights, and backup lights—vary by trim and region, so always confirm with the owner’s manual or the lamp housing label before purchasing replacements.
