Just wondered if anyone can shed some light (no pun intended) on what the part number is for the license plate bulbs (5 watts)? In my owner's manual it states that it is 5 watts with a socket of W 2.1x9.5d, whatver that means.
I am used to going in to my local Auto Zone and ask for say a #1156 bulb or a #67 bulb.
Also for the vanity mirror bulbs (1.2 watts) what do I ask the guy at the desk for?

    The vanity mirror lights are rare and I doubt that you will be able to find them at an auto parts store. The part number is 989780 and they should run around $2.50 each at the dealer.

    Auto Zone has a bulb reference book. The guy at the counter can look up also. Spray those little screws down good with PB Blaster before you take them out. They can be stubborn.
