Replacement bulbs
 

How do you know what kind of light bulbs you need when replacing the
headlights or license plate lights? The old bulbs don't have it on
there and it's not in the owner's manual. I would assume you could take
the old bulb to the store and just compare it to the other kinds in the
store. But what if they look alike but have different specs?

Normally, you would tell the parts counter sales person the year make and
model of your vehicle and they would look up the correct bulbs in a parts
catalog.

Replacement bulbs
 

All the owners manuals I have for my vehicles have a page that tells you
what all the bulbs are as well as what all the fuses are....

It is usually towards the end of the manual.
