Additional Notes

The Suzuki Equator uses the 168 bulb size for the license plate position across the 2009-2012 model years.
The 168 bulb follows the ANSI standard, meaning it conforms to a recognized North American specification used in both the United States and Canada.
It is a T10 miniature wedge bulb, a form factor in which the base is formed by the glass envelope itself tapering to a wedge shape, requiring no separate metal base or pins.
The 168 operates at 12 volts, consistent with the standard electrical system voltage found in conventional passenger vehicles.
Its rated power draw is 4.9 watts, placing it in the low-wattage range typical of license plate and courtesy lighting applications.
The T10 wedge format is widely shared across many vehicle makes and models, which contributes to broad aftermarket availability of the 168 bulb.
Although the T10 wedge category includes multiple bulb numbers, the 168 and closely related types such as the 194 are not always interchangeable, as differences in wattage and filament design can affect fit and function in specific sockets.
