Additional Notes

The 211-2 is the sole dome light bulb size listed across all model years of the GMC Jimmy covered in these specifications.
The 211-2 is a festoon-type bulb, meaning it is cylindrical and held in place by spring-loaded end caps rather than a socket with a plug-in base.
It carries an SV8.5 base designation, which refers to the 8.5mm end cap width standard used on festoon bulbs of this type.
The bulb operates at 12 volts and draws 12 watts, consistent with standard automotive interior lighting applications.
At 41mm in length, the 211-2 fits a specific festoon holder size, and substituting a bulb of a different length risks a loose fit or failure to make electrical contact.
The 211-2 conforms to ANSI standards recognized in both the United States and Canada, indicating a standardized specification rather than a proprietary part.
For the 1995 GMC Jimmy, the 211-2 specification is noted specifically for the front dome light position on vehicles without the roof console option coded DK6, indicating that this trim configuration affects bulb placement.
The specifications span the 1973-2001 model years, with the 211-2 listed consistently throughout, reflecting a long-standing fitment for this vehicle line.
