2016 Hyundai Sonata Headlight Bulb Size
Low beam
9005
High beam
9005
Order
4 × 9005
Low and high beam both take a 9005, but they are two separate bulbs per side — four in total. Replace all four so the colour and output match.
The 2015–2019 Sonata uses these same bulbs — your 2016 sits in the middle of that run. See all Sonata years.

Two bulbs, one per side. |
| High beam | 9005 |
Same type as low beam, but a separate bulb. |
| Factory HID | D3S |
Some Sonata trims came with factory HID. D3S is a gas-discharge socket — a halogen or LED bulb will not fit it. |
