Phillips 97B2 Instrument Panel Light Bulb - Front or Rear

Phillips 97B2 Instrument Panel Light Bulb

The Phillips 97B2 is a standard incandescent instrument panel light bulb built for clear, consistent illumination in dashboard and interior lighting applications. Its glass construction, BA15s base, and 13.5-volt rating make it a practical OE-style replacement for a wide range of classic and late-model vehicles.

Phillips Standard - Twin Blister Pack is the brand line focused on value-driven replacement lighting for everyday automotive use. The 97B2 follows that approach with a straightforward design for instrument panel and related lighting positions across many Chevrolet, Ford, Jeep, Toyota, and Hyundai applications.

• Standard mini bulb design for instrument panel lighting
• Incandescent bulb technology with clear finish

This Phillips 97B2 bulb is used where a clear, standard-output replacement is needed for instrument panel illumination and related interior lighting points. It is a direct replacement choice for drivers servicing older dashboards and lighting circuits that call for a BA15s incandescent bulb. Common fitment examples include Fits 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, N/A; Fits 2000-2002 Chevrolet Silverado 2500, N/A; Fits 1982-1996 Ford F-150, N/A; Fits 1989-1996 Hyundai Sonata, N/A; and Fits 1971-1977 Toyota Celica, Front and Rear.

This part cross-references 76799 for the same application.

Common Uses

• Dim or failed instrument panel illumination
• Dashboard warning and gauge lighting replacement
• Interior lighting service on vehicles using a BA15s bulb
• Restoration work on older Chevrolet, Ford, Jeep, and Toyota models
• Replacement for clear incandescent panel bulbs with the same electrical specification

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the bulb base, voltage, and physical dimensions before installation. Match the BA15s socket and confirm the application calls for a standard mini incandescent bulb rather than an LED or specialty lamp. For best results, handle the glass bulb carefully and avoid touching the glass with bare hands during installation.

Because fitment spans many years and models, confirm the exact vehicle position and original bulb specification before ordering. This is especially important on older Ford F-Series, Jeep CJ and Cherokee applications, and classic Chevrolet and Toyota models where trim and lighting configurations can vary.

Quality Assurance

Phillips Standard bulbs are positioned as value-focused replacement lighting for everyday service use. The 97B2 is built to the listed electrical and physical specifications for straightforward replacement in confirmed applications.
