Chevrolet Corvette 2016 Bulb Size
Bulb size chart
This page covers the 2016 Chevrolet Corvette and helps you verify the correct bulb size by lighting position, so you can match the right replacement to the right lamp. Because Corvette lighting can vary by trim, body style, and market, it is important to use the bulb chart as a position-by-position reference instead of assuming every exterior or interior bulb is the same.
For the 2016 Chevrolet Corvette, the chart includes LED-based exterior and interior lighting positions such as the brake lights, tail lights, front and rear turn signals, daytime running lights, parking lights, side markers, reverse lights, dome light, map light, glove box light, and center high mount stop light. It also lists the headlight bulb type as D3S and shows the trunk or cargo area light and license plate light bulb options where applicable.
Fitment can change with trim and lighting package, so always compare the bulb chart with the exact Corvette you own before ordering. Some versions use factory LED assemblies, while others may have serviceable bulbs in specific locations, and aftermarket LED conversions can change the bulb type or require additional parts. If you are replacing a bulb, check the one already installed whenever possible, especially for interior lamps and smaller exterior positions, to confirm the correct base and size before purchase.
