In order to replace the headlight bulb in the 2013 Dodge Dart, you'll need a 9005 bulb for both the low and high beams. To start, pop the hood and locate the black cover near the front by the radiator. Unscrew and carefully pry off the cover to access the bulb for replacement. You can find replacement bulbs priced between $5 to $12 each, or $10 to $20 for a pair.
The Dart utilizes a 9012 bulb, not a 9005.

Regarding the issue with the blown LED low beam, only a small number of individuals are experiencing this issue. The reason is that LEDs use very little power, so the computer perceives it as an open circuit.
Do not attempt to use 9005 as it will not fit whatsoever.
9012 works well, just avoid using an LED as you will receive a notification on the dashboard indicating a low beam outage. I have tested various LEDs but the issue persists.
I purchased a 9005 bulb, but it didn't fit in the socket.
Here's my paraphrased version: "Avoid buying a 9005 as it will not be compatible. Instead, consider purchasing a 9012.
