Additional Notes

The Polaris XLT uses the 194 bulb across all listed model years, spanning 1992-1997.
The 194 is an ANSI-standardized bulb recognized in both the United States and Canada, ensuring consistent availability across North American markets.
This bulb follows the T10 miniature wedge form factor, a base type that requires no locking pins or bayonet twist to seat, relying instead on friction from the wedge-shaped glass envelope pressed into the socket.
The 194 operates at 12 volts and draws 3.78 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage bulbs in automotive applications, consistent with indicator and marker light use rather than primary illumination.
The wedge base design of the 194 is shared with several other bulb types in the same T10 family, though wattage and voltage ratings differ between them, making direct substitution inadvisable without confirming electrical compatibility.
