Honda Accord front and rear side marker bulbs use a 168 size bulb for replacement applications. The replacement chart covers vehicle production spanning 1976 to 2018.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The 168 bulb is the sole bulb type specified across all front and rear side marker positions for the Honda Accord years listed.
The 168 bulb is an ANSI-standardized miniature wedge type, classified under the T10 form factor, and rated at 12 volts and 4.9 watts.
The T10 wedge base is a pinless design that seats by friction, meaning the bulb body itself acts as the electrical contact within the socket.
At 4.9 watts, the 168 is a low-output bulb, consistent with its role in side marker lighting rather than primary illumination functions.
The Honda Accord (1976-1978) uses the 168 bulb for front side marker positions, and the same years carry the same fitment for rear side markers.
The 1982-1985 Accord model years share the 168 bulb specification across both front and rear side marker positions.
The 1990 and 1991 Accord model years also use the 168 bulb in both front and rear side marker positions.
The 2018 Accord is listed with the 168 bulb for the front side marker position only among the years provided.
Because the 168 follows an ANSI standard recognized in both the United States and Canada, the specification applies uniformly across both markets.
The consistent use of the T10 wedge fitment across a wide span of Accord model years means the 168 bulb is physically interchangeable between those positions without socket modification.
