The Saab 9-7x uses 194 bulb size for both front and rear side marker applications. The replacement chart covers 2005 to 2009 model years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Saab 9-7x uses the 194 bulb for both front and rear side markers across the full 2005-2009 model range.
The 194 is a miniature wedge-base bulb, classified under the T10 form factor, which refers to its tubular shape with a width of 10 millimeters.
The wedge base design means the bulb is held in place by the socket gripping its base directly, with no separate metal pins or bayonet fittings involved.
The 194 operates at 12 volts and draws 3.78 watts, placing it in the low-wattage category typical of marker and clearance lighting applications.
The 194 is an ANSI-standardized bulb recognized in both the United States and Canada, meaning its electrical and physical specifications conform to a defined industry standard rather than a proprietary format.
Because the front and rear side marker positions on the 9-7x share the same 194 bulb, a single bulb type serves all four side marker sockets on the vehicle.
The T10 wedge format is widely used across many vehicle makes and lighting positions, which contributes to broad retail availability of the 194 bulb.
When replacing the 194, fitment requires a T10 wedge-base socket; bulbs with bayonet or pin-type bases are not interchangeable with this socket type regardless of wattage similarity.
