Additional Notes

The 1895 is the sole bulb type listed for the MG TF license plate position, appearing across the 1954-1955 model years.
The 1895 bulb follows the ANSI standard, meaning it conforms to a specification recognized across the United States and Canada.
It is a T5 miniature wedge bulb, where "T5" denotes a tubular envelope with a 5/8-inch body width, and the wedge base eliminates the need for a separate metal base or locking pins.
The 1895 operates at 12 volts and draws 0.9 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage miniature bulbs used in automotive applications.
