Additional Notes

The 578 is a festoon-type bulb measuring 41mm in length with end-cap contacts, operating at 12 volts and 12 watts. This contact style means the bulb bridges two metal clips at either end of the housing rather than inserting into a socket.
The 168 is a miniature wedge bulb in the T10 form factor, rated at 12 volts and 4.9 watts. The wedge base is held in place by the socket walls themselves, with no separate metal base or pins.
Both the 578 and 168 are classified under ANSI standards applicable in the United States and Canada.
The Chrysler Sebring uses the 578 bulb for the map light in the 2007-2008 model years.
The 1995 Chrysler Sebring uses the 168 bulb for the map light, which differs in both form factor and wattage from the 578 used in later model years.
The 578 festoon and the 168 wedge are not interchangeable. Their contact types, physical forms, and wattage ratings are all distinct, meaning a housing designed for one will not accept the other.
