Catalog bulb positions and codes for the 2013 Kia Forte. Confirm against your owner’s manual before buying.

Fitment notes

2013 Kia Forte bulb fitment varies by lighting function, and no low-beam or high-beam bulb size is supplied for this model year. Verify the headlight assembly and vehicle-specific bulb requirement before ordering headlight replacements.

For the exterior lighting listed, the front turn signal, parking light, and both front and rear side markers use 2357A bulbs. The brake and tail lights use 2357R, while the rear turn signal uses 1157A. Reverse lights and the center stop light use 921 bulbs.

License-plate lighting may use either 168 or 917, so check the existing socket and fixture. Inside the vehicle, the dome and map lights use DE3175, and the trunk light uses 6418. Because headlight fitment is not included in the supplied data, do not assume a low- or high-beam size from the other listed bulbs.
