My car uses model 9005 headlight bulbs. I want to use Wagner BP9005ND bulbs as replacements but it says they aren't compatible? I have visually compared the bulbs online and don't see an obvious difference to explain why the Night Defense bulbs wouldn't work. Any ideas?

Hi,

The part number you are looking for when it comes to the night defense is BP9005ND2. I have a feeling if you omitted the number 2 at the end, it is causing the problem.

I attached a pic below showing the part. Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care and have a good Thanksgiving.

Joe
