BA15s vs BAY15d: The 382 (P21W) uses a BA15s base with a single contact point and is a single-filament bulb. This differs from the BAY15d base (used in 380 P21/5W bulbs) which has dual contacts for dual-filament operation. Always verify which base type your vehicle requires.

Installation: Align the straight pins on the BA15s base with the socket slots, insert the bulb, and twist clockwise to lock in place. The bayonet design ensures secure fitment. Always ensure the ignition is off before replacing bulbs and replace in pairs for consistent appearance.

Compatibility: Suitable for most cars and commercial vehicles with 12V DC electrical systems requiring P21W bulbs with BA15s single-contact base. Check your vehicle handbook or existing bulb to confirm 382/P21W fitment before purchase.
