The Chrysler Cirrus brake light requires a 3057 bulb size for proper installation and function within the rear lighting assembly. Data for the specified component covers the period from 1995 through 2000.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Chrysler Cirrus uses the 3057 bulb for brake lighting across all model years from 1995-2000, making it the consistent standard for that function throughout the vehicle's entire production run.
The 3057 is a dual-filament wedge bulb classified under the T25 form factor, operating at 12V with a wattage split of 27W for the high-intensity filament and 7W for the low-intensity filament, which allows it to serve both brake and tail light functions within a single unit.
The 921 bulb is specified for the Center High Mount Stop Light on the Chrysler Cirrus for all model years from 1995-2000.
Unlike the 3057, the 921 is a single-filament wedge bulb in the T15 form factor, rated at 12V and 16W, meaning it serves only one lighting function rather than two.
Both the 3057 and 921 bulbs conform to ANSI standards applicable in the United States and Canada, indicating standardized electrical and physical specifications recognized across North American markets.
The T25 and T15 designations refer to the tubular wedge base form factor of each bulb, with the numerical portion reflecting relative size differences between the two types, which means the 3057 and 921 are not interchangeable despite both using wedge-style bases.
The dual-filament nature of the 3057 is a critical fitment consideration, as substituting it with a single-filament bulb of similar wattage would result in the loss of either the brake or tail light function in the standard brake light housings of the Cirrus.
