Additional Notes

The Toyota Tacoma uses the 74 bulb for the glove box across all listed model years, spanning 1995-2004.
The 74 bulb is an ANSI-standardized type recognized in both the United States and Canada, which reflects a formal classification rather than a manufacturer-specific designation.
It belongs to the T5 form factor, a miniature wedge-base bulb named for its tubular glass envelope measuring 5/8 of an inch in width.
The wedge base design means the bulb is held in place by the socket gripping the glass pinch at its base, with no separate metal base or bayonet pins involved.
The 74 bulb operates at 12 volts and draws 1.4 watts, placing it among the lower-wattage miniature bulbs used in automotive interior applications.
The T5 wedge format is shared by several other ANSI-coded bulbs, so fitment depends on matching the specific 74 designation rather than the T5 form factor alone, as voltage and wattage ratings differ across T5 variants.
