Additional Notes

The 74 bulb is the specified glove box bulb size for the Toyota Highlander across the 2001-2005 model years.
The 74 bulb follows the ANSI standard, which is the recognized specification body for miniature automotive lighting in the United States and Canada.
This bulb uses a T5 miniature wedge base, a base type that relies on two angled plastic legs to friction-fit directly into a socket without a separate metal connector or locking mechanism.
The T5 designation refers to the bulb's tubular envelope width, expressed in eighths of an inch, placing it among the smallest bulb form factors used in automotive interior applications.
The 74 bulb operates at 12 volts, consistent with the standard electrical system voltage found in passenger vehicles.
At a rated wattage of 1.4W, the 74 bulb draws very low current, which is typical for low-intensity interior illumination tasks such as glove box lighting.
When replacing the glove box bulb in the Toyota Highlander (2001-2005), the T5 wedge base form factor is a fitment-critical attribute, as wedge-base bulbs are not interchangeable with bayonet or festoon base types even when voltage ratings match.
