BMW X6 2017 Bulb Size
Bulb size chart
The 2017 BMW X6 uses a mix of LED lighting and a few application-specific bulbs, so it helps to verify each bulb size by lighting position before ordering replacements. This page is designed to make that easier by organizing the bulb chart by location, including exterior lights, interior lamps, and cargo-area lighting.
Because BMW offered different lighting packages and trim combinations for the 2017 X6, the correct bulb can vary depending on market and equipment. Use this guide to match the bulb to the exact function on your vehicle, whether you are replacing a headlight, turn signal, license plate light, or an interior lamp.
For best fitment, always compare your vehicle’s installed bulb type with the chart before buying. Trim level, package content, and body style can change the lighting setup, especially on models with halogen, HID, or full LED systems. If you are converting to aftermarket LED bulbs, make sure the replacement matches the socket, polarity, and space available inside the housing. Some lighting positions on the 2017 BMW X6 are LED modules rather than simple replaceable bulbs, so the original installed part matters more than the name of the light position. When in doubt, remove the old bulb or inspect the housing label before placing an order.
