Anyone know what the bulb size is for the light mounted underneath the hood? Thanks.

look in the book

All auto parts stores have a reference book in the lighting isle. This book will list EVERY bulb for your X.
 












I'd just pop the bulb out and match it to one in the auto parts store. Don't go to the stealership, unless of course you want to pay big bucks.
 












What is the difference in the bulbs? I have noticed that the 906, 912 and 921 are the exact same size and shape. What is the difference, if any?

Also, the 194 and 168 bulbs are the same size as well.

Just curious :rolleyes:

Wattage....For instance, the 194 is the brighter of the 168/194 bulbs.

A 168 would be somewhere like in the dash,or door panel, where you want a dimmer light.
