Additional Notes

The Nissan Maxima uses the 158 bulb size for the trunk across all listed model years, spanning 1981-2023.
The 158 bulb is a T10 miniature wedge type, which refers to its wedge-shaped base that holds the bulb in place without a separate metal socket or pins.
This bulb operates at 12 volts and draws 3 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage interior lighting bulbs used in automotive applications.
The 158 designation follows ANSI standards recognized in both the United States and Canada, meaning the specification is consistent across North American markets.
The T10 wedge base is a widely used form factor in automotive interior lighting, and bulbs sharing this base type are generally interchangeable as long as voltage and wattage ratings are compatible.
Because the 158 is an ANSI-standardized bulb, aftermarket and OEM replacements from various manufacturers are widely produced to the same electrical and physical specifications.
