Chevrolet Malibu 2013 Bulb Size
Bulb size chart
This 2013 Chevrolet Malibu bulb size guide is designed to help you verify the correct bulbs by lighting position before you buy replacements. Because the Malibu could be equipped with different trims, headlight types, and lighting packages, the bulb used in one position may differ from another version of the same car.
Use this page as a quick reference for common exterior and interior lights such as headlights, brake lights, turn signals, reverse lights, license plate lights, dome lights, and cargo area bulbs. Matching the bulb to the exact location is the easiest way to avoid ordering the wrong part.
Fitment can vary by trim and market, so always compare the bulb chart with the bulb already installed in your Malibu before purchasing. Halogen models, Eco models, and LTZ models with HID headlights may use different bulb types in the same lighting position, and some replacements may be sold as LED upgrades or aftermarket conversions rather than direct factory-style bulbs. If you are changing from halogen to LED, make sure the new bulb is compatible with the housing, connector, and any required resistors or adapters. When possible, remove the old bulb and confirm the base style and shape before ordering, especially for exterior lights where the wrong bulb can affect beam pattern, brightness, or warning messages.
