2002 Toyota Hilux headlight bulbs — fitment, purpose and service tips

Based on the Toyota Hilux owner’s manual for this era, Toyota’s Electronic Parts Catalogue, and AU/NZ application data from Narva and Philips, the 2002 Toyota Hilux uses replaceable halogen headlight bulbs — typically H4, 12V 60/55W with a P43t base, in the main headlamp assembly. That confirms headlight bulbs (often called globes) are very much used and serviceable on this model.

The headlight bulbs on a 2002 Hilux pull double duty: low beam for everyday night driving and high beam for open-road visibility.
