2014 Nissan Altima Headlight Bulb Size
Known for its comfortable ride and impressive highway fuel economy, the 2014 Nissan Altima became a fixture in commuter parking lots and rental fleets nationwide, proving its durability mile after mile. The 2014 Nissan Altima headlight bulb size breaks down as follows: H11 for low beams, 9005 for high beams, and H11 for the fog lights. Swapping in 2014 Nissan Altima LED headlights gives this second-year fifth-gen sedan a sharper look while putting more usable light on the road ahead.
The Altima's reputation as a dependable daily driver means many of these cars are still racking up miles. Brighter headlights make a tangible safety difference on those long evening commutes, and LED bulbs consume less energy than the factory halogens.
Choosing LED or HID for Your 2014 Altima
An LED headlight kit is the most popular upgrade path for the 2014 Altima. The H11 LED bulbs plug directly into the factory harness, fire up instantly at full brightness, and produce a crisp 6000K white beam. Heat output stays low, which helps preserve the headlight housing lens over time. Installation runs about 15 minutes per side with no cutting or splicing.
If you want the absolute maximum candlepower, an HID conversion kit delivers a concentrated xenon arc that pushes light farther down the road. A compact ballast mounts behind each headlight, adding a few extra steps to the install.
All HID Nation kits include free shipping and a lifetime warranty, so the investment is protected for as long as you own the car.
Frequently Asked Questions
What headlight bulb size does the 2014 Nissan Altima require?
The 2014 Nissan Altima uses H11 for the low beams, 9005 for the high beams, and H11 for the fog lights. Reflector housings come standard on the 2.5 S, while projector housings are found on SV and SL trims.
Are 2014 Nissan Altima LED headlights a plug-and-play install?
Yes. LED conversion kits for the 2014 Altima use the same H11 base as the stock halogen bulbs. You remove the old bulb, insert the LED, and connect the plug. No modification to the housing or wiring harness is needed. The entire job takes most people under 30 minutes for both sides.
My 2014 Altima has reflector headlights. Will LED bulbs still work properly?
They will. Quality LED kits place the LED chips in the same position as the halogen filament, so the reflector bowl directs light where it should go. HID Nation kits are designed to maintain a controlled beam pattern in reflector housings and avoid scattering light into oncoming traffic.
Does switching to LED headlights void my Nissan warranty or affect the CVT?
An LED headlight bulb swap does not affect your drivetrain warranty or CVT operation. LED bulbs draw fewer watts than halogen, reducing electrical load rather than increasing it. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act also prevents a dealer from voiding coverage based on an unrelated aftermarket part.
Can I match the fog lights with the same LED color on my 2014 Altima?
Yes. The 2014 Altima fog lights also use H11 bulbs, the identical size as the low beams. Installing LED fog lights alongside LED headlights creates a consistent white appearance across all front lighting. HID Nation carries matching fog light kits for a seamless look.
