1st & 2nd Generation (1983–1986 & 1987-1991)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 1983-1986 & 1987-1991.
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
Couple things I discovered recently.
3057 and 3157 bulbs can be replaced with 3457 bulbs. The base is the same but the 3457 bulbs are slightly brighter. The increse in power used negligible - approx 2.1A vs 2.2A. You can brighten up slightly
2825, 168, and 194 bulbs all share the same base but different brightness. 2825 is the brightest and 194 is the dimmest.

Good effort, but your compilation leaves a lot to be desired. Gen 3 and 3.5 use different head lamp bulbs as does Gen 4 and 4.5. Gen 5 unlike Gen 5.5 doesn't have a separate parking and turn signal lamp up front.
It looks like you just copied this off the Sylvania web site or search so you probably can remove some of their alternatives. ie, just put 9006 bulb instead of 9006XV or 9006ST. If there's an A at the end, it might be an indicator for a red or amber bulb though.
Agreed... this doesn't encompass all of the Gens... you don't have a Gen 3, only 3.5. You don't have a Gen 4, only 4.5. And you don't have a Gen 5, only 5.5. Many of the bulbs are different between the two parts of each Gen, and many aren't even listed in the Sylvania website.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.

Does that look better? I added the .0 Gen's to the .5's and removed the other crap.
