Additional Notes

The bulb size 67 is an ANSI-standardized type used in both the United States and Canada, operating at 12 volts and 8 watts.
The 67 bulb uses a BA15s bayonet base, which is a single-contact fitting that locates and locks the bulb with a twist action.
The 67 is a single-filament bulb, meaning it serves one lighting function rather than switching between two brightness levels.
The 67 bulb is a lower wattage variant of the 1156, which shares the same BA15s base type but draws more power. This distinction is relevant to fitment, as the two are not interchangeable in all applications despite their physical similarities.
The American Motors Super Six uses the 67 bulb for the license plate position across the 1961-1962 model years.
