2017 Honda Civic Headlight Bulb Size
The 2017 model year turned the Honda Civic into a genuine performance car again — the Si returned with a turbocharged 1.5L making 205 horsepower, the hatchback body style came back to the US market, and the legendary Type R debuted with 306 hp and a Nurburgring lap record. The 2017 Honda Civic headlight bulb size is H11 for the low beam, 9005 for the high beam, and H11 for the fog lights. For halogen-equipped trims, upgrading to 2017 Honda Civic LED headlights gives the aggressive 10th-gen styling the lighting to match.
LED Headlight Upgrade for the 2017 Honda Civic
The 2017 Civic's projector headlight housings on halogen trims are engineered to produce a tight, controlled beam — and they respond exceptionally well to LED bulbs. An LED H11 conversion kit replaces the factory halogen with a brighter, whiter bulb that lights up instantly and draws less power from the electrical system. For a car that already looks aggressive from the factory, the visual upgrade is the finishing touch.
Drivers who push their 2017 Civic Si on backroads or track days may prefer HID kits for the peak lumen output they deliver. HID bulbs produce a denser light spread that throws farther, though they need a few seconds to reach full brightness and require a compact ballast mounted behind each housing. Both options obliterate the yellowish halogen output.
Every HID Nation conversion kit ships free and is covered by a lifetime warranty — no questions, no hassle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 2017 Honda Civic headlight bulb size?
The 2017 Honda Civic uses H11 bulbs for the low beam, 9005 bulbs for the high beam, and H11 bulbs for the fog lights. The LX trim uses halogen projector headlights, while EX and above come equipped with factory LED headlights. LED and HID conversion kits are intended for the halogen-equipped LX models.
Do 2017 Civic LED headlights work with the Si or Type R?
The 2017 Civic Si and Type R both came with factory LED headlights from Honda, so they do not need an aftermarket LED conversion kit for the low beams. However, owners of these trims can still upgrade fog lights and high beams with LED bulbs for a fully matched lighting setup across all positions.
Will LED headlights affect Honda Sensing on a 2017 Civic?
No. The Honda Sensing suite — including adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and collision mitigation braking — uses a forward-facing camera that is independent of the headlight bulb type. LED conversion bulbs do not emit interference patterns that would confuse the camera. This has been confirmed by thousands of 10th-gen Civic owners running aftermarket LEDs.
How difficult is it to install LED headlights on a 2017 Honda Civic?
Installation is straightforward and takes most owners 20 to 30 minutes total for both sides. Open the hood, reach behind the headlight housing, twist the H11 bulb socket counterclockwise to release it, unplug the halogen bulb, and plug in the LED replacement. Tuck the slim LED driver behind the housing and you are finished. No tools are required beyond what comes in the kit.
Can I upgrade the 2017 Civic hatchback fog lights to LED?
Yes. The 2017 Civic hatchback uses the same H11 fog light bulb as the sedan and coupe. An LED fog light upgrade provides a clean white beam that complements LED headlights and significantly improves low-visibility driving conditions like fog, heavy rain, and pre-dawn commutes.
