Additional Notes

The Polaris XLT Touring uses the 194 bulb for its tail light across the 1995-1999 model years.
The 194 is an ANSI-standardized bulb type recognized across the United States and Canada, meaning it conforms to a defined set of electrical and physical characteristics shared by all compliant manufacturers.
The 194 bulb follows the T10 miniature wedge form factor. The wedge base design relies on the glass envelope itself being pinched at the base to form the electrical contacts, with no separate metal base or pins.
The 194 operates at 12 volts and draws 3.78 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage miniature bulbs used in automotive lighting applications.
Because the 194 is an ANSI-standardized type, replacement bulbs from different manufacturers are generally interchangeable as long as they carry the same designation and conform to the same voltage and wattage ratings.
