Toyota Cressida front side marker bulbs use 168, 194, or 67 size configurations, while rear side marker bulbs use 194 or 67 size options. The replacement chart covers 1978 to 1992 production years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Toyota Cressida front side marker uses three distinct bulb sizes across its production span: the 168, 194, and 67. The rear side marker position is more consistent, relying almost entirely on the 194 across most model years, with the 67 appearing only in 1980-1981.
The 194 bulb is the most frequently specified size across both front and rear side marker positions on the Toyota Cressida. It is an ANSI-standard miniature wedge bulb with a T10 base, rated at 12V and 3.78W.
The 168 bulb shares the same T10 miniature wedge base as the 194 but draws slightly more power at 4.9W versus 3.78W. Despite this physical similarity, the two are not the same specification and are fitted to different model years in the front side marker position.
The Toyota Cressida front side marker uses the 168 bulb for the 1989-1992 model years. Although the 168 and 194 share a T10 wedge base form factor, substituting one for the other would result in a wattage mismatch with the original specification.
The 67 bulb differs fundamentally from the 168 and 194 in its base type. It uses a BA15s single-contact bayonet base rather than a wedge base, making it physically incompatible with sockets designed for T10 wedge bulbs. It is rated at 12V and 8W, which is notably higher than either wedge variant.
The 67 bulb is specified for the Toyota Cressida front side marker in 1980-1981 and 1985-1986, and for the rear side marker in 1980-1981. Its bayonet base construction means it cannot be directly interchanged with the 194 or 168 bulbs used in adjacent model years without a socket change.
All three bulb types listed in these specifications, the 168, 194, and 67, conform to ANSI standards applicable in both the United States and Canada, indicating they meet a common regulatory framework for miniature automotive lighting.
The front side marker position on the Toyota Cressida shows more variation in bulb specification across its production span than the rear side marker position, which uses the 194 for the majority of model years covered.
