Bulb size chart

This page covers bulb size information for the 2004 Dodge Dakota and is organized by lighting position so you can quickly verify the correct replacement before you buy. Whether you are replacing a headlight, tail light, interior lamp, or license plate light, checking the bulb location first helps avoid ordering the wrong part.

Because the 2004 Dodge Dakota could be equipped with different trim levels, body styles, and lighting packages, the exact bulb used in a given position may vary.

For best results, match the replacement bulb to the original socket and lens type, especially if your Dakota has been modified or converted from halogen to LED. Some aftermarket LED bulbs fit physically but may not perform the same way in reflector housings, and some trucks may have different bulbs depending on market or package. Before purchasing, remove the installed bulb and confirm the number printed on the base whenever possible, since that is the most reliable way to verify fitment on a 2004 Dodge Dakota.
