Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2009 Bulb Size
Bulb size chart
This page helps you verify the bulb sizes for the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 by lighting position, so you can match the correct replacement before you buy. Because trim level, body style, and lighting package can change the fitment, it is best to confirm the bulb type for each lamp location rather than relying on a single all-purpose listing.
For the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, common bulb positions include headlight high beam 9005, headlight low beam H11, front turn signal and parking light 4157NA, and rear turn signal or backup light 3047. Interior and exterior courtesy lamps also use specific sizes such as 921, 194, 912, and 212-2, making a position-by-position check the safest way to replace bulbs correctly.
Fitment can vary across Silverado 1500 trims, cab styles, and market-specific lighting packages, so always compare the bulb in the truck with the listing before ordering. Some positions may use halogen bulbs from the factory, while others may have LED replacements or LED-style upgrades such as the H11 LED daytime running light or 5202 LED fog light option. If you are converting from halogen to aftermarket LED, make sure the bulb base, polarity, and housing depth are compatible, and remember that an LED upgrade may change beam pattern or require additional hardware. The most reliable step is to remove the installed bulb and check its marking before purchase, especially for shared-looking sockets that can differ by trim or option package.
