This page covers the 2020 Lincoln MKZ and helps you verify bulb sizes by lighting position. Instead of guessing from a generic list, you can match each exterior and interior light location to the correct bulb type for your vehicle.

The 2020 MKZ uses LED lighting in many positions, and the exact setup can vary by trim, lighting package, market, and body style. Use this guide to check the bulb chart by location, including headlights, brake lights, turn signals, license plate lights, and cabin lamps.

For the best fitment results, compare your MKZ’s installed lighting before buying replacements. Trim and package differences can change whether the car uses LED headlights or HID headlights, and some markets may have different rear or side marker lamp setups. If your vehicle has been modified with aftermarket LED conversions, the original bulb listing may no longer match what is currently installed, so it is smart to inspect the existing bulb or housing before ordering. When in doubt, verify the part by position on the car rather than relying only on the model year.

FAQ

The headlight setup depends on the lighting system. This page lists LED headlights for some configurations and D3S for the HID headlight version. Check your vehicle’s installed headlight type before purchasing.

How do I know if my MKZ has LED headlights or HID headlights?

Look at the headlamp assembly and your vehicle’s build information if available. The bulb chart on this page separates the LED headlight setup from the HID setup, which uses D3S. Matching the installed system is important for correct fitment.

Are the brake light and tail light bulbs replaceable on the 2020 MKZ?

The chart shows LED for the brake light and tail light positions. On many LED-equipped vehicles, these are integrated into the lamp assembly rather than replaced like a traditional bulb, so confirm the exact service method for your car.

What bulb is used for the front turn signal on this model?

The front turn signal light position is listed as LED for the 2020 Lincoln MKZ. Because lighting packages can vary, it is best to confirm the lamp type on your specific vehicle before ordering parts.

The chart shows both front and rear side marker light positions as LED. Depending on market and body style, the exact lamp arrangement can still vary, so position-based checking is recommended.

Can I use aftermarket LED bulbs in place of the original bulbs?

You can, but fitment and function depend on the housing, connector, and vehicle electronics. Some aftermarket LED conversions may cause warnings, flicker, or beam pattern issues, especially in headlight applications.

Should I check the installed bulb before ordering replacements?
