    194 , 168 , W5W , 2825 These bulbs all look the same but the difference is the wattage ... I know that a 194 is real bright and if you put it in a area that takes a 168 it will melt the plastic... Just go to your local auto parts store and see what they pull up ... I know 194 are usally for side markers and tag lights . :)
