Additional Notes

The 921 bulb is the specified back up light bulb size for the Mercedes-Benz GLC43 AMG across the 2017-2022 model years.
The 921 is an ANSI-standardized bulb type, meaning its physical and electrical specifications conform to a defined industry standard recognized in the United States and Canada.
The 921 uses a wedge-style base, designated T15, which refers to a tubular bulb body approximately 15 eighths of an inch wide that is held in its socket by friction rather than by pins or a bayonet mechanism.
The bulb operates at 12 volts and draws 16 watts, consistent with standard automotive low-voltage electrical systems.
The wedge base design of the T15 means the bulb is not interchangeable with pin-base or bayonet-base types, even when voltage and wattage ratings are otherwise similar.
