Fitment notes

2000 Subaru Forester bulb fitment uses a 9003 bulb for both the low-beam and high-beam headlights. The supplied fitment data does not indicate a projector/non-projector headlight distinction, so no headlight-type variation is listed for this model year.

  • Front turn signals, parking lights, and front side markers use 1157A bulbs.
  • Rear turn signals and reverse lights use 1156 bulbs.
  • Brake and tail lights use 1157R bulbs, while the center stop light uses 912.
  • License plate and trunk lighting may use either 168 or 917; compare the original bulb before ordering.
  • Dome and map lights use DE3175.
  • Instrument lighting may use 158 or 2721; compare the original bulb to determine the correct option.

No fog-light bulb fitment is listed in the supplied data. Confirm the existing bulb and socket when replacing bulbs with multiple listed options.
