Audi S8 2016 Bulb Size
Bulb size chart
This page is for the 2016 Audi S8 and is designed to help you verify bulb sizes by lighting position instead of guessing from a generic parts list. Because the S8 uses a mix of exterior and interior lighting functions, the correct bulb can depend on where it is installed on the car.
Use the bulb chart on this page to match each light location to the correct replacement. That is especially helpful on a performance sedan like the S8, where LED lighting is common and the fitment can vary by market, trim, and equipment package.
For the best fit, compare the bulb position on your car with the chart before ordering, since trim and lighting package differences can change what is installed from one 2016 Audi S8 to another. Many exterior lights on this model are listed as LED, which means the original part may be an LED module rather than a simple replaceable halogen bulb. If you are considering an aftermarket LED conversion or replacing a non-LED interior bulb, make sure the base type, polarity, and physical size match the socket. When a bulb size is listed with more than one option, or when the vehicle has optional equipment, it is smart to remove the installed bulb and check it directly before buying replacements.
FAQ
Does the 2016 Audi S8 use LED lighting in most positions?
Yes, many of the exterior and interior lighting positions listed for the 2016 Audi S8 are LED. That includes key areas such as the low beam, high beam, daytime running lights, tail lights, brake lights, and several interior lamps.
Why should I check bulb size by lighting position on this page?
The same vehicle can use different bulbs in different locations, so checking by lighting position helps you avoid ordering the wrong part. This page is organized to make it easier to match the exact light on your 2016 Audi S8 with the correct bulb type.
Are the headlight bulbs on the 2016 Audi S8 replaceable as standard bulbs?
The chart lists both low beam and high beam headlight bulbs as LED. On vehicles like the S8, that often means the lighting is integrated rather than using a traditional halogen bulb, so replacement may involve a module or assembly instead of a simple bulb swap.
What bulb size is used for the glove box light on a 2016 Audi S8?
The glove box light is listed as 2825, 98. If you are replacing that bulb, use the same size and confirm the socket style before purchase.
What bulb size is used for the interior door light on a 2016 Audi S8?
The interior door light is listed as 2825, 98. Because some trims may differ, it is still a good idea to verify the installed bulb before ordering.
Do trim level or lighting package differences matter on this car?
Yes. Trim and lighting package can vary by market and body style, and those differences can affect which bulb is installed in a specific position. Always match the bulb to the actual light on the vehicle, not just the model year.
Can I convert a non-LED bulb position to LED on a 2016 Audi S8?
In some interior positions, yes, but you should confirm the bulb base, size, and polarity first. For exterior lighting, LED conversions can be more complicated because the car may already use factory LED modules or may require error-free components.
Which exterior lights are listed as LED on this page?
The page includes LED listings for the headlight high beam and low beam, brake light, tail light, turn signals front and rear, license plate light, parking light, daytime running light, side markers front and rear, back up reverse light, fog light rear, cornering light, and center high mount stop light.
How do I know if my 2016 Audi S8 has the same bulb as the chart?
The safest method is to compare the bulb location on your car with the chart and then inspect the installed bulb if possible. This is especially important for optional lighting equipment and market-specific variations.
Are the vanity mirror, dome, map, trunk, and stepwell lights also covered?
Yes, those interior and convenience lighting positions are listed on the page as well. The chart includes vanity mirror light, trunk or cargo area light, dome light, map light, stepwell light, and door mirror illumination light.
What should I do before buying replacement bulbs for my 2016 Audi S8?
Check the exact bulb position, confirm whether it is LED or a replaceable bulb, and compare the installed part if the car has optional lighting equipment. This helps prevent returns and ensures the replacement fits correctly.
