Description	Bulb Size
ANSI standard (US & Canada). Miniature wedge bulb (T10). 12V, 4.9W.	168

The Nissan TITAN uses the 168 bulb size for the license plate position across the 2004-2015 model years.
The 168 bulb is classified as a miniature wedge type, designated T10 in the international bulb sizing system, where "T" refers to the tubular shape and "10" indicates the width in eighths of an inch.
The 168 operates at 12 volts and draws 4.9 watts, placing it in the low-wattage range typical of exterior illumination bulbs that run continuously with the vehicle's lights.
The 168 conforms to ANSI standards recognized in both the United States and Canada, meaning it meets a defined set of electrical and physical tolerances established by the American National Standards Institute.
The wedge base design of the T10 bulb means it is held in its socket by the tension of the base itself rather than by a bayonet or screw fitting, which is a common trait in license plate and interior lighting applications.
Because the 168 specification remains unchanged across all twelve model years listed for the Nissan TITAN, a single bulb type covers the full 2004-2015 production range for this position.
The T10 wedge format is shared by several bulb numbers beyond the 168, and not all T10-type bulbs carry identical wattage ratings, so wattage compatibility warrants attention when a substitute is considered.
