Catalog bulb positions and codes for the 2016 Tesla Model S. Confirm against your owner’s manual before buying.

Fitment notes

For the 2016 Tesla Model S, headlight bulb fitment depends on the factory headlight type. Models with halogen headlights use a 9005 bulb for both the low beam and high beam. Models equipped with HID headlights use a D3S bulb for both functions.

Check whether the vehicle has halogen or HID headlights before ordering, since these systems use different bulb types and are not interchangeable based on this fitment data alone.

  • Fog lights: LED
  • Front and rear turn signals: LED
  • Brake, center stop, tail, reverse, parking, daytime running, and side-marker lights: LED
  • License plate light: 6418

The exterior lighting is predominantly LED, with the 6418 listed specifically for the license plate application. For the headlamps, match the replacement to the existing halogen or HID configuration rather than relying only on the model year.
