Additional Notes

The Kia Spectra trunk uses two distinct bulb sizes across its model years: the DE3423 for 2005-2009 and the DE3022 for 2000-2001.
Both the DE3423 and DE3022 are festoon-type bulbs, meaning they are cylindrical in shape and make electrical contact through metal caps at each end rather than through a base socket.
The DE3423 has a 41mm length, while the DE3022 measures 31mm in length. These two bulbs are not interchangeable due to this difference.
Both bulbs operate at 12 volts, which is consistent with standard automotive electrical systems.
Both the DE3423 and DE3022 conform to ANSI standards applicable in the United States and Canada.
The end-cap contact design of festoon bulbs requires the bulb to be held under slight compression within its housing, so the correct length is critical for maintaining a reliable electrical connection.
