Toyota RAV4 front and rear side marker bulbs utilize 168, 194, and 7443 bulb sizes across different applications. The replacement chart contains vehicle production years and bulb size specifications spanning 1996 to 2024.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Toyota RAV4 front side marker uses the 168 bulb across the 1998-2024 model years, with the exception of 1996-1997, which use the 194 bulb instead.
The 168 and 194 are both ANSI-standard miniature wedge bulbs sharing the T10 form factor and 12-volt operating voltage, though they differ in wattage: the 168 draws 4.9W while the 194 draws 3.78W.
Because the 168 and 194 share the T10 wedge base, physical fitment between the two is possible, but their wattage ratings differ, which is a relevant electrical consideration.
The rear side marker of the Toyota RAV4 uses three distinct bulb types across its production span, reflecting greater variation in that position compared to the front.
The 7443 is a dual-filament T20 wedge bulb rated at 12V and 21W/5W, making it significantly higher in wattage than either the 168 or 194, and it is not interchangeable with T10-based bulbs due to its larger T20 form factor.
For the 2016-2018 rear side marker, the 7443 bulb applies specifically to trims equipped with halogen capsule headlamps, indicating a conditional fitment tied to the headlamp configuration of the vehicle.
The rear side marker for 2022-2024 uses the 194 bulb, while the 2021 model year uses the 7443, representing a change in bulb type between those adjacent years.
The rear side marker for 2006-2011 uses the 168 bulb, the same T10 type found throughout the front side marker positions for most of the RAV4's production history.
