Light Bulb Replacement Guide (for all H-body)

Postby robert123 » Fri Apr 08, 2016 3:08 am

Here's a free list of all the light bulb #'s for your H-body.

Just go to the website to check on the list for your particular year -- real easy.
https://www.sylvania.com/en-us/applicat ... gmain.aspx
Go to where it says "START HERE" and then "Select your Year" etc.
These bulbs are high-quality and available at Walmart, etc.

Example:
1975 CHEVROLET Vega (2.2)
Application - Part # - Long Life
Auto Trans Indicator Light Bulb -- 194
Back Up Light Bulb -- 1156
Brake Light Bulb -- 1157
Dome Light Bulb -- 561
Engine Compartment Light Bulb -- 1003
Glove Box Light Bulb -- 1893
Headlight Bulb High Beam and Low Beam --H6024
High Beam Indicator Light Bulb --194
Instrument Panel Light Bulb -- 168 .......168 seems to have 2 kinds (1 clear and 1 amber). 168 LL is 4.9 watts .... 168 NALL is Amber and 4.9 watts
License Light Bulb -- 194
Radio Dial Light -- 1816
Side Marker Light Bulb Front & Rear -- 194 (4.6 watts)
Tail Light Bulb -- 1157
Turn Signal Light Bulb Front & Rear -- 1157
Parking Light Bulb -- 1157

*Also available are Bulbs --161 @ 2.7 watts each (These are very similar in size & shape to 168's and 194's).

Are LED bulbs any better than these bulbs?
Do you know pros & cons?
