The 2011 Volkswagen Jetta uses a single bulb (dual filament) headlight system. This means one bulb controls both high and low beams.

LED upgrades are available for many D1S applications, but fitment, beam pattern, dashboard warnings, and road-use legality can vary. Use products that list your exact bulb family, such as D1S, and verify the factory housing before buying.
