Additional Notes

The Toyota Pickup uses two distinct glove box bulb sizes across its 1989-1995 model years: the 74 and the 161, both classified under ANSI standards applicable to the US and Canadian markets.
The bulb 74 is a T5 miniature wedge type rated at 12V and 1.4W, while the 161 is a T10 miniature wedge type rated at 12V and 1W, making the two bulbs electrically and physically non-interchangeable despite sharing the same wedge base category.
The T5 and T10 designations refer to the tubular envelope width of each bulb, with T5 being narrower than T10. This difference in envelope size means the two bulbs occupy different socket housings and cannot be substituted for one another.
The 1993-1995 Toyota Pickup uses the size 74 bulb for the glove box, drawing 1.4W at 12V.
The 1989-1992 Toyota Pickup uses the size 161 bulb for the glove box, drawing 1W at 12V.
The wattage difference between the two bulbs, 1.4W for the 74 versus 1W for the 161, reflects a change in the designed power draw of the glove box lighting circuit between the earlier and later production years.
