Additional Notes

The 168 bulb follows the ANSI standard used in the US and Canada. It is a T10 miniature wedge bulb rated at 12V and 4.9W, and it serves as the interior door bulb for the Toyota Camry across the 2012-2020 model years.
The 12961 is a Philips part number designation for a T10 miniature wedge bulb with a W2.1x9.5d base, rated at 12V and 5W. This bulb applies to the 2021-2023 Camry interior door position.
Both the 168 and 12961 share the T10 wedge form factor, which refers to a small, tapering plastic wedge base that requires no separate socket retainer. Despite this physical similarity, the two bulbs carry different wattage ratings, 4.9W for the 168 and 5W for the 12961, and are designated under different classification systems.
The W2.1x9.5d base notation on the 12961 describes a wedge-type base where 2.1 refers to the wire contact width in millimeters and 9.5 refers to the base length in millimeters. This is the IEC standard way of expressing what the ANSI system identifies simply as a T10 wedge.
A change in bulb designation occurs between the 2020 and 2021 Camry model years, where the specified interior door bulb shifts from the 168 to the 12961. These two bulbs are not confirmed as interchangeable within these specifications, and substituting one for the other without verification of fitment is not supported by the data provided.
