Additional Notes

The Toyota Land Cruiser map light specifications reference three distinct bulb types across the 1998-2021 model years: the 74, the 12961, and the 168.
The 12961 is designated by a Philips part number rather than an ANSI standard code. It is a T10 miniature wedge bulb with a W2.1x9.5d base, rated at 12V and 5W.
The 168 is an ANSI-standard bulb for the US and Canadian markets. It is also a T10 miniature wedge type, rated at 12V and 4.9W, making it nearly identical in wattage to the 12961 despite carrying a different designation.
The 74 is an ANSI-standard T5 miniature wedge bulb rated at 12V and 1.4W, which is notably lower in wattage than both the 12961 and the 168.
The T10 and T5 designations refer to the tubular envelope width of the bulb, with T10 indicating a wider envelope than T5. These two form factors are not interchangeable due to physical size differences.
The Toyota Land Cruiser (2015) carries a production-date qualifier, specifying the 12961 only for vehicles built up to August 2015. This indicates a mid-year specification change for that model year.
The 12961 is the most frequently specified bulb across the listed years, appearing in the 1998-2002, 2008-2014, and partial 2015 entries.
The 168 and 12961 share the T10 wedge form factor and W2.1x9.5d base type, but the 168 is rated at 4.9W while the 12961 is rated at 5W, a difference that may affect direct substitution depending on circuit tolerances.
