Additional Notes

The Audi TTS Quattro uses the 12961 bulb for the glove box across the 2009-2023 model years covered in these specifications.
The 12961 is a Philips part number designating a miniature wedge bulb in the T10 form factor, which refers to the tubular glass envelope with a 10mm width.
This bulb operates on a 12-volt electrical system and draws 5 watts, placing it in the low-wattage range typical of interior courtesy and compartment lighting.
The W2.1x9.5d base type is a wedge-style base where the glass pinch itself acts as the retention mechanism, requiring no separate metal socket pins for installation.
T10 bulbs with the W2.1x9.5d base are a widely standardized format, though fitment should be confirmed against the 12961 specification before substituting an alternative part number, as physical similarity does not guarantee electrical compatibility.
