Additional Notes

The Dodge B1500 uses the 906 bulb size for the map light across the 1995-1998 model years.
The 906 bulb is classified as a miniature wedge type, designated T10 in the bulb sizing system, which refers to the tubular glass envelope width expressed in eighths of an inch.
The wedge base design means the 906 bulb is held in place by the socket gripping the base of the glass envelope directly, with no separate metal base or pins involved.
The 906 bulb operates at 12 volts, which is consistent with standard automotive electrical systems.
At 8 watts, the 906 draws a relatively low current, placing it among the lower-wattage bulbs used in interior lighting applications.
The 906 designation follows ANSI standards recognized in both the United States and Canada, indicating a standardized specification for the bulb's electrical and physical characteristics.
When sourcing a replacement, the T10 wedge form factor is shared by several other ANSI-coded bulbs, though wattage and voltage ratings among T10 variants can differ, making the specific 906 designation the relevant reference for this application.
