[SOLVED] Are there license plate bulbs for the 7th Gen S/W?

[cabbe2]

Hi my names abraham and I have a 93 Toyota Corolla DX Station Wagon with the 7Afe 1.8l motor. I want to know if this specific model has license plate light bulbs. I have tried to look around and see if they actually exist and I found something: http://www.bulbs.com/AutomotiveResul...&Model=COROLLA but I'm not sure if that information is correct or where to even install them. Thanks for your time .

Umm they webpage I posted has the same information but with links to the bulbs. Maybe I need to restructure my question a bit.


I think I know what type of bulb I need which is: 168 Standard Lamp http://www.bulbs.com/results.aspx?Nr=P_AutoXRef:168, now how do I install them?

have you taken a look at where they are? it may be pretty simple to figure out for yourself. most cars have two screws.

nvm I went to look at it for like the third time and noticed that when the car was painted the person who did it didn't bother to remove them and just painted on top plus when I took the bulb out it was blown

yes, the license plate lights are 2 194-type bulbs (kinda late sorry lol). And you can grind or strip the paint off if you want the light to shine through.

According to corolla guru aka Chris aka gold94corolla lol I have been getting the 921 bulbs since he told me those are the biggest you can fit in there, same with my turn signals

[gold94corolla]

haha, well yeah you can definitely swap out the plate bulbs (an corner light bulbs) for the 921 type, which is the same 21-watt bulb used in the third stop light in the window. But that might be a little bright for the plate!

921 may not fit well/be too hot for there. LED's would be a better bet...

^^^definitely. I put 921 bulbs in my plate lights when I had them colored purple (in 2004) but the bulbs were too big and broke. I had 921 bulbs in my clear corner lights, and one day the lenses melted some since I left them on all day in the driveway.
