Additional Notes

The Land Rover Freelander uses the 6461 bulb for the dome light across the 2002-2005 model years.
The 6461 is a festoon-type bulb, meaning it is cylindrical in shape and mounts by pressing between two spring clips at each end rather than inserting into a socket.
The 6461 carries an ANSI designation, indicating it meets a standardized specification recognized in the United States and Canada.
The bulb operates at 12 volts with a 5-watt output, which is typical for low-draw interior lighting applications in passenger vehicles.
The 6461 uses an SV8.5 base, a designation that refers to the festoon cap size and is a key factor in physical fitment within the dome light housing.
The festoon body of the 6461 measures 36mm in length, and substituting a festoon bulb of a different length risks poor contact with the spring clips or an improper fit within the housing.
