Additional Notes

The 211-2 is the most frequently specified dome light bulb for the Chrysler New Yorker, covering the majority of model years across the listed range. It is a festoon-type bulb with a 41mm length, SV8.5 base, rated at 12V and 12W.
The 1004 bulb was specified for the New Yorker from 1956 through 1968. It is a dual-filament bulb with a BAY15d bayonet base, rated at 12V with a 21/5W output, and is a variant of the more widely known 1157.
The 192 bulb was specified for the 1994-1996 model years. It is a miniature wedge type in the T10 form factor, rated at 12V and 3W, which represents a significantly lower wattage than the 211-2 used in earlier years.
The 912 bulb was specified exclusively for the 1983 model year. It is a T15 wedge bulb rated at 12V and 12W, and is noted as a variant of the 921.
The 257 bulb was specified for the 1971 model year only. It is described as a festoon or BA9s base instrument bulb rated at 12V and 2W, making it the lowest-wattage bulb in these specifications.
The 1004 and 211-2 are both rated at 12V but differ in base type and filament configuration. The 1004 uses a BAY15d bayonet base with dual filaments, while the 211-2 uses an SV8.5 festoon base with a single filament, meaning the two are not interchangeable.
The 912 and 192 are both wedge-type bulbs but belong to different size classes. The 912 is a T15 wedge at 12W, while the 192 is a T10 wedge at 3W, and the two are not interchangeable despite sharing the same base style.
All bulb types listed across these specifications conform to ANSI standards applicable in both the United States and Canada.
