Mazda 929 Map Light Bulb Size

The Mazda 929 map light requires bulb sizes 906, 168, 67, and 214-2 depending on the specific version of the vehicle. Available data for the bulb sizes covers the range from 1988 to 1995.

Additional Notes

The Mazda 929 map light specifications span model years 1988-1995, with four distinct bulb types used across that range.
The 214-2 is the most frequently specified bulb in these records, covering the 1988-1991 model years. It is an ANSI-standard festoon bulb with a 41mm length, SV8.5 base, rated at 12V and 12W.
Festoon bulbs such as the 214-2 are held in place by spring-loaded end caps rather than a socket, which is a physically distinct mounting method from the wedge and bayonet types used in later 929 model years.
The 1993 Mazda 929 uses a type 67 bulb, an ANSI-standard single-filament bulb with a BA15s bayonet base, rated at 12V and 8W. It is a lower-wattage variant of the 1156 bulb family and is not interchangeable with the wedge-base types used in 1994 and 1995.
The BA15s bayonet base of the type 67 features a single contact pin, which physically prevents substitution with dual-pin bayonet bulbs even when wattage ratings are similar.
The 1994 model year uses a type 168, a miniature wedge bulb in the T10 form factor, rated at 12V and 4.9W. The 1995 model year uses a type 906, also a T10 miniature wedge bulb, but rated at a higher 8W.
Although the 168 and 906 share the T10 wedge form factor and are physically interchangeable in many sockets, their wattage ratings differ significantly, at 4.9W and 8W respectively, which can affect socket heat tolerance and circuit load.
All four bulb types in these specifications conform to ANSI standards applicable to the US and Canadian markets, indicating they follow standardized electrical and dimensional tolerances for those regions.
The wattage across the specified bulbs ranges from 4.9W (type 168) to 12W (type 214-2), meaning the 929 map light circuit drew notably different power levels depending on the model year.
No single bulb type is shared between the 1988-1991 festoon-based years and the 1993-1995 years, indicating the map light assembly underwent at least one significant redesign across the 929 production run.
