5007 vs 67 Tail Light Bulbs For 07 S60 2.5T

Post by MoVolvos »

Ordered some 5007 tail light bulbs per Sylvania Bulb Guide to replace all 4 in the rear assembly of the 07 S60 2.5T. One was out and the remaining had a few different bulb numbers so decided to go Stage 0. Not sure which website but 67 is interchangeable with the 5007 with 3 more watt output. It's also a round bulb vs the 5007 half circle. Long story short 3 watts is not a lot but it was much crisper, sharper and looked like LED's so more noticeable.

The 67 bulb is rated 78 Watts at 13.5 volts while the 5007 is rated 8 watts at 12 volts. Higher voltage rating generally indicates longer life. Higher watts MIGHT draw enough power to burn fuses.
