Additional Notes

The GMC Savana uses the 194 bulb for its license plate position across the 1996-2024 model years.
The 194 is a miniature wedge-type bulb, classified under the T10 form factor, which refers to a tubular bulb body roughly 10 eighths of an inch wide.
The 194 bulb operates at 12 volts and draws 3.78 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage bulbs found in automotive lighting applications.
The 194 conforms to ANSI standards recognized in both the United States and Canada, meaning it is produced to a consistent specification across manufacturers.
The wedge base design of the 194 means the bulb is held in its socket by the tension of the base itself rather than by a separate bayonet or screw mechanism.
Because the 194 is an ANSI-standardized bulb, aftermarket and OEM replacements from different suppliers are generally interchangeable as long as they carry the same 194 designation.
The T10 wedge format is also shared by several other ANSI bulb numbers, so substituting a visually similar wedge bulb without confirming the 194 designation risks a mismatch in wattage or voltage rating.
