Additional Notes

The Toyota Celica uses the 74 bulb for its ash tray across the 2000-2002 model years.
The 74 bulb follows the ANSI standard recognized in the United States and Canada.
It is a T5 miniature wedge type, a designation referring to the bulb's tubular glass envelope measured in eighths of an inch, making the T5 approximately 5/8 of an inch wide.
The wedge base design means the bulb is held in place by the socket gripping the glass base directly, with no separate metal base or pins involved.
The 74 bulb operates at 12 volts and draws 1.4 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage bulbs used in automotive interior applications.
The low wattage of 1.4W is consistent with an illumination role rather than a signaling role, as ash tray lighting requires only enough output to make the compartment visible in low-light conditions.
The consistent fitment of the 74 bulb across all three listed model years indicates no change in ash tray socket specification within that production period.
