    I want to replace my factory halogen low beam bulbs for the Philips X-TREME Power bulbs but I need the bulb number?

    Available in:
    9003, 9006, 9007, 9008/H13, H7

    Which number will fit my 2010 Prius III?

    I could be wrong, but I searched for the X-Treme bulbs earlier and I could not find it. It should be type H11. So I settled for the Osram Nightbreakers.

    The bulb info is in the owner's manual, in the bulb replacement section.

    I also use the Osram Nightbreaker H11... It is brighter than the stock or the PIAA X-treme bulbs, but their lifespan is ridiculously short... my bulbs burned out after 50 hours of usage (six months)...

    That is out of the users manual for the 2010 Prius. It's not just for the V though, it is for all 2010.

    Just an update -

    My Osram Night Breaker's lasted 2,900 miles. From my trip meter, my average speed was around 30 mph. I used my bulbs also during the day, so I'd say they get used %80 of the time. So with those rough calculations, it comes out to a lifespan of 77 hours. Also, both of my bulbs burnt out exactly the same time.
