Additional Notes

The Plymouth Acclaim map light draws from three distinct bulb types across its production run: the 168, 906, and 214-2.
The 168 and 906 are both T10 miniature wedge bulbs operating at 12V, though they differ in wattage. The 168 is rated at 4.9W, while the 906 draws 8W, making them higher and lower output variants of the same physical form factor.
Despite sharing the T10 wedge base, the 168 and 906 are not interchangeable in a strict specification sense, as each model year is assigned one or the other, and their wattage difference reflects a deliberate output distinction.
The 214-2 is a festoon-style bulb with an SV8.5 base and a 41mm length, operating at 12V and 12W. Its physical format is entirely different from the T10 wedge types, making it incompatible with sockets designed for the 168 or 906.
All three bulb types conform to ANSI standards recognized in both the United States and Canada.
The Plymouth Acclaim (1989) uses the 214-2 festoon bulb for the map light, the only model year in the specification to require this bulb type.
The 906 applies to the 1993-1994 model years, while the 168 covers 1990-1992 and 1995, meaning the same vehicle nameplate used two different T10 wedge wattages at different points in production.
