Additional Notes

The Honda Insight uses the 168 bulb size across all model years listed in the specifications, spanning 2000-2006 and 2010-2014.
The 168 is a miniature wedge bulb built to the T10 form factor, a compact tubular shape commonly used in low-intensity automotive lighting positions such as parking lights.
The 168 operates at 12 volts and draws 4.9 watts, placing it in the low-wattage range typical of indicator and courtesy lighting rather than primary illumination.
The 168 carries ANSI standardization, meaning its physical and electrical characteristics are defined by a recognized industry standard applicable in both the United States and Canada.
The wedge base design of the T10 form factor means the bulb is held in its socket by the tension of the base itself, with no separate metal cap or pins involved in the connection.
Because the 168 is an ANSI-standardized type, it is interchangeable with other bulbs sharing the same T10 wedge base and 12V/4.9W rating, provided those replacements conform to the same standard.
