Additional Notes

The Dodge Shadow dome light uses one of two bulb sizes across its model years: the 211-2 for 1987-1993 and the 212-2 for 1994.
Both the 211-2 and 212-2 are festoon-type bulbs, meaning they are cylindrical in shape and mount by pressing lengthwise between two spring clips rather than inserting into a socket.
Both bulbs share the same SV8.5 base type, which refers to the festoon contact cap standard used across both sizes.
Both bulbs are rated at 12 volts and 12 watts, making their electrical output identical.
Both bulbs share a 41mm length, meaning they are physically the same size despite carrying different part numbers.
The 211-2 and 212-2 are both classified under the ANSI standard applicable to the United States and Canada.
Because the 211-2 and 212-2 share the same physical length, voltage, wattage, and base type, the two part numbers are widely regarded as interchangeable in practice, though the Dodge Shadow (1994) is specified with the 212-2 and the 1987-1993 models are specified with the 211-2.
