2015 Nissan Altima Headlight Bulb Size
With mid-cycle refinements including NissanConnect infotainment and push-button start trickling down to lower trims, the 2015 Nissan Altima hit a sweet spot of value and technology for daily commuters. The 2015 Nissan Altima headlight bulb size is H11 for the low beams, 9005 for the high beams, and H11 for the fog lights. Upgrading to 2015 Nissan Altima LED headlights is a straightforward way to improve visibility on the dark roads and highway on-ramps these sedans see every day.
Because the Altima prioritizes fuel economy, the lower power draw of LED bulbs fits the car's philosophy perfectly. You get brighter, whiter light while asking less from the electrical system.
Best LED and HID Kits for the 2015 Altima
For a car that logs serious commuter miles, the 2015 Altima deserves headlights that keep pace. An LED kit replaces the factory H11 halogen with a 6000K white beam that reaches full brightness the instant you turn the key. LED bulbs run cooler, last years longer than halogen, and tuck neatly behind the housing without clearance issues.
HID xenon kits remain a strong alternative when maximum throw distance is the priority. The ballast-and-bulb setup takes a bit more installation time but rewards you with an exceptionally dense beam that illuminates farther down the highway.
HID Nation backs every kit with a lifetime warranty and free shipping. If anything arrives DOA or fails down the road, a replacement is on us.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the headlight bulb sizes for the 2015 Nissan Altima?
The 2015 Nissan Altima requires H11 bulbs for the low beams, 9005 bulbs for the high beams, and H11 bulbs for the fog lights. The 2.5 S trim ships with reflector housings, while the SV and SL trims come equipped with projector-style headlights.
Will LED headlights fit both reflector and projector housings on the 2015 Altima?
Yes. LED conversion bulbs use the standard H11 base, so they fit either housing type. In projector housings the beam cutoff remains sharp, and in reflector housings a quality LED with a compact chip layout will maintain a proper beam pattern. HID Nation kits are tested in both configurations.
How do I upgrade the fog lights on a 2015 Nissan Altima?
The fog lights on the 2015 Altima use H11 bulbs, matching the low beam size. Swap them out the same way: twist the socket behind the fog light housing, remove the halogen, and insert the LED replacement. Running LED fog lights alongside LED headlights gives the front end a cohesive modern look.
Does switching headlights to LED affect the 2015 Altima's fuel economy?
If anything, the effect is slightly positive. LED bulbs draw roughly half the wattage of halogen bulbs, reducing the load on the alternator. The difference is small, but for a car designed around every last mile per gallon, it aligns with the Altima's efficiency-first mindset.
How long does it take to install LED headlights on a 2015 Altima?
Plan on about 15 to 20 minutes per side. The bulbs are accessed from behind the headlight housing under the hood. Twist the old bulb out, slide the LED in, connect the driver, and you are done. No special tools or wiring modifications are necessary.
