This 2001 BMW X5 bulb size guide helps you verify the correct bulbs by lighting position, so you can match the right part before you buy. Whether you are replacing a headlight, a rear turn signal, or a small interior lamp, using the bulb chart by location makes it much easier to avoid mistakes.
Because trim and lighting equipment can vary by market and body style, the same 2001 BMW X5 may use different bulb types in some positions. Use this page as a position-by-position reference for exterior and interior lighting, including low beam, high beam, fog lights, brake lights, license plate lights, and cabin bulbs.
For the best fitment, compare the bulb listed on this page with the one already installed in your X5 before ordering, especially if your vehicle has a different trim, lighting package, or regional specification. Some positions may use halogen bulbs while others use HID or LED-style components, and aftermarket conversions can change the required bulb type or connector. If you are upgrading to LED, make sure the replacement is compatible with the housing and does not create fitment, beam pattern, or warning-message issues. When in doubt, remove one bulb and check the base style and markings before purchasing a full set.
The low beam headlight bulb listed for the 2001 BMW X5 is D2S. This is especially important to confirm before buying, since the low beam setup is different from the high beam bulb.
The high beam headlight bulb is 9005. If one side is out, it is a good idea to replace bulbs in pairs so the light output stays even.
The front turn signal bulb can vary by original setup. This page lists 3457 for one option and 3457A for another option, so check the installed bulb before ordering.
The rear turn signal bulb is listed as 7506 for one option and 7507 for another option. Because both appear on this page, verify the bulb already in the socket to match the correct version.
Both the brake light bulb and the tail light bulb are listed as 7506R on this page. That makes it easier to buy the correct replacement for the rear lamp assembly.
The back up reverse light bulb is 7506. If the reverse lights are dim or out on both sides, check the bulbs and the sockets for corrosion as well.
The front fog light bulb is listed as H3C or H3. The exact fit can depend on the lamp housing, so confirm the bulb base before ordering.
The license plate light bulb is 6418. This same bulb type is also used in several small interior positions on this page.
The page lists 6418 for the glove box light, interior door light, stepwell light, and one courtesy light option. It also lists 2886X for the map light, trunk or cargo area light, and door mirror illumination light.
The dome light bulb is 6486X. If your X5 has an optional overhead console or different interior package, it is worth checking the installed bulb before replacing it.
The vanity mirror light bulb is listed as 6411 or 6428. Either may appear depending on the original lamp setup, so compare the existing bulb to the chart.
Yes. The center high mount stop light uses an LED-style bulb on this page, and the rear side marker light bulb is 7528. These are separate from the brake and tail light bulbs.
