    Marker light bulb number

    What is the replacement side marker light bulb number? It just says bulb in the parts manual.
    Everytime I open the garage door, my car costs me a roll of toonies.

    You've pulled one or more of yours and looked closely for any ID printed or stamped on it?

    We know they are 12V bayonet type. The Owners Manual says they are 5 watt bulbs.

    Took one to Canadian Tire last week and they don't carry it. Lame.

    I dont even bother with canadian tire for parts counter stuff. Go to a dedicated parts store!

    This is also coming from a person who worked at the parts counter in his younger years. Makes it much more frustrating when you can use the system better than them.

    Good info. BA9 is the base size/type of the bulb, which completes the picture along with the 5W rating out of the owners manual and knowing the shape of the bulb.

    So it would be a GE1893 shows as the 5W/14V option with the correct voltage and bulb shape per the selector link below. It could be other mfgrs/numbers as well.
