Additional Notes

The T10 wedge bulb (168) operates at 12 volts and draws 4.9 watts, classifying it as a low-output miniature lamp suited for marker or indicator functions rather than primary illumination.
The T25 wedge bulb (3157) is a dual-filament type rated at 12 volts with two distinct wattage levels, 27W and 7W, allowing it to serve both stop and tail light functions within a single housing.
Both bulb types conform to ANSI standards recognized in the United States and Canada, indicating standardized base dimensions and electrical ratings across those markets.
The Polaris Sportsman 570 Utility Edition uses the 168 bulb for the 2018-2019 model years and the 3157 bulb for the 2017 model year, meaning the two model year groups are not interchangeable in tail light fitment.
Substituting a 3157 dual-filament bulb into a socket designed for the single-filament 168 would present a wattage mismatch, as the 3157 draws significantly more power at its primary filament than the 4.9W rating of the 168.
