Buick Regal 2012 Bulb Size

Bulb size chart

Looking for the right bulbs for your 2012 Buick Regal? This page is designed to help you verify bulb sizes by lighting position, so you can match the correct replacement to the exact lamp on your car. Because the Regal could be equipped with different headlight and lighting setups, checking the position first is the best way to avoid buying the wrong part.

The 2012 Buick Regal uses a mix of halogen, HID, and interior bulbs depending on trim and package. On this page you can quickly compare the bulb size for the low beam, high beam, turn signals, parking lights, brake lights, reverse lights, license plate lights, and cabin lights. That makes it easier to replace one bulb or plan a full lighting refresh with confidence.

Fitment can vary by market, trim, and body style, so always confirm whether your Regal has halogen headlights or HID headlights before ordering front lighting parts. The front turn signal and parking light bulb sizes differ between those setups, and the daytime running light may use either H11 LED or H16 LED depending on the configuration. If you are switching to aftermarket LED bulbs or using a conversion kit, check physical fit, polarity, and any required resistors or adapters before installation. It is also smart to compare the bulb you remove from the car with the size listed here before you buy, especially for interior lamps and exterior signal bulbs where small differences can matter.
