Toyota Corolla Ash Tray Bulb Size

Additional Notes

• The Toyota Corolla ash tray bulb specification calls for the type 74 across all listed model years, from 1975 through 2013.
• The type 74 is an ANSI-standardized bulb recognized in both the United States and Canada, which places it within a regulated and widely distributed product category.
• It belongs to the T5 miniature wedge family, a form factor defined by a wedge-shaped base that seats directly into a socket without a separate metal cap or pins.
• The T5 designation refers to the bulb envelope width, expressed in eighths of an inch, making the T5 approximately 5/8 of an inch wide at its widest point.
• The type 74 operates at 12 volts and draws 1.4 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage miniature bulbs used in automotive interior illumination.
• Because the wedge base relies on contact pressure from the socket rather than a bayonet or screw mechanism, fitment depends on the physical size of the wedge conforming to the socket cavity.
• The consistent use of the type 74 across model years spanning 1975-2013 for the Toyota Corolla ash tray position indicates a stable socket specification across multiple vehicle generations.
