Additional Notes

The 168 bulb is the sole parking light bulb size listed for the Ford Aspire across the 1994-1997 model years.
The 168 is an ANSI-standardized bulb type, meaning its physical and electrical specifications follow a recognized North American standard used in both the United States and Canada.
The 168 uses a T10 miniature wedge base, which is a small, wedge-shaped plastic base that seats directly into a socket without a separate metal cap or bayonet pin.
The bulb operates at 12 volts and draws 4.9 watts, placing it in the low-wattage range typical of parking and marker light applications rather than primary illumination functions.
The T10 wedge format is shared across a wide range of automotive bulb types, so fitment by socket shape alone does not confirm electrical compatibility with the 168 specification.
Substituting a bulb with a higher wattage rating than 4.9W into a socket designed for the 168 risks exceeding the thermal and electrical tolerances of the original socket and wiring.
