What is the model number of the Verna license plate light?

The model of the Verna license plate light is a 5W plug-in bulb. The method to remove the license plate light is: 1. Remove the screws fixing the license plate and take off the license plate; 2. Use a flat-head screwdriver to remove the upper bulb component; 3. Unscrew the bulb from the component directly. Taking the 2020 Verna as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of: length 4300mm, width 1705mm, height 1460mm, and a wheelbase of 2570mm. The 2020 Verna features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4L naturally aspirated engine, producing a maximum horsepower of 95PS, maximum power of 70kW, and maximum torque of 132.4Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
Last time I replaced the license plate light on my Verna, I remember the bulb model was W5W or also called T10. This is a common bulb size for many compact cars due to its small size and low power consumption, around 5 watts. Depending on your car's production year, newer Verna models might still use the same type, but it's best to remove the lens cover to confirm - unscrewing it is quite simple. I think bulb replacement is pretty common since filaments tend to burn out, especially on bumpy roads or as they age. To save money, you can buy replacement bulbs online for just a few yuan each. The LED versions are brighter and more energy-efficient. Be careful not to damage the wiring during replacement - it's safer to disconnect the power first. Don't worry about the difficulty level, it's really beginner-friendly. I've done it twice myself, and each time it took less than ten minutes to complete.
As someone who frequently repairs cars, I've noticed that the license plate lights on the Verna are generally T10 type, specifically W5W specification, with a plug-in interface that makes it easy for users to replace them themselves. The reason is simple: ordinary bulbs are prone to wear or poor contact, and common issues include water ingress in the taillight area causing short circuits or filament burnout. During repairs, first check the fuse box to prevent accidental power loss, then remove the screws, unplug the old bulb, and insert the new one. It's recommended to regularly inspect and maintain brightness to avoid trouble with the police during nighttime parking. Switching to LED models can improve durability and brightness, making it much safer overall.
