Additional Notes

The 168 bulb is the license plate bulb size for the Saturn Relay across the 2005-2007 model years.
The 168 bulb follows the ANSI standard, which is the recognized specification framework used in the United States and Canada for automotive lighting components.
It belongs to the T10 form factor, a miniature wedge-base bulb type that uses a tapered plastic base to secure itself directly into a socket without a separate metal base or locking mechanism.
The 168 operates at 12 volts, consistent with the standard electrical system voltage found in passenger vehicles.
Its rated power draw is 4.9 watts, placing it in the low-wattage range typical of non-illumination lighting positions such as license plate housings.
The T10 wedge base is shared across a wide range of bulb part numbers, meaning physical fitment alone does not confirm electrical compatibility; voltage and wattage ratings require separate verification before substitution.
