This page for the 2008 Volkswagen Passat helps you verify bulb sizes by lighting position, so you can match the right bulb to the right socket before you buy. Because trim, body style, and lighting package can vary, it is important to confirm the exact location on the car instead of relying on a single universal fitment.
Use the bulb chart to check exterior and interior bulbs separately, including brake, tail, turn signal, parking, reverse, license plate, dome, map, and cargo lights. The 2008 Passat can use different bulb types depending on market and equipment, so the position-based list is the safest way to shop for replacements.
For best results, compare the bulb currently installed in your 2008 Volkswagen Passat before ordering, especially if your car has factory xenon or other package-specific lighting. Halogen and LED setups are not always interchangeable, and aftermarket LED conversions may need additional parts or may not fit exactly like the original bulb. If your Passat has been modified or repaired before, the bulb in the socket may differ from the original specification, so a quick visual check can prevent mistakes and returns.
The listed low beam headlight bulb is D1S. This is common on Passat models equipped with factory HID or xenon lighting, but you should still confirm your headlight setup before ordering.
The daytime running light bulb is listed as 7506. Always verify whether your car’s DRL function is separate from the parking light or integrated with another lighting circuit.
The front turn signal light bulb is 64136. Front signal fitment can vary by trim and lighting package, so checking the installed bulb is a smart step.
The rear turn signal light bulb is listed as LED on this page. Because rear lamp assemblies can differ by body style and market, confirm the exact lamp design on your vehicle.
Both the brake light bulb and tail light bulb are listed as LED. That means the lamp may be part of an LED assembly rather than a simple replaceable halogen bulb.
The center high mount stop light bulb is listed as LED. On some vehicles this may be integrated into the housing, so replacement method can differ from a standard bulb swap.
Both the parking light bulb and the front side marker light bulb are listed as 2827. These positions often share similar fitment, but it is still best to match the bulb to the specific socket.
The back up reverse light bulb is 7506. If your reverse lights are dim or out, replacing both sides at the same time can help keep the lighting even.
Interior listings include map light 2825, 98; interior door light 2825, 98; glove box light 2821; stepwell light 2821; trunk or cargo area light 6411, 6428; vanity mirror light 6418; dome light 6418; and door mirror illumination light 2886X.
This page shows license plate light bulb Option 1 as 2825, 98 and Option 2 as 6418. That usually means different lamp housings or market-specific setups, so you should compare your installed bulb before buying.
Some positions on this page are already listed as LED, while others are standard bulb types. If you want to convert halogen bulbs to LED, check fitment, polarity, warning messages, and local road-use rules before purchasing.
Match the bulb to the exact lighting position, then confirm the bulb number on the existing part if possible. This is especially important on the 2008 Volkswagen Passat because trim and lighting package differences can change fitment.
