The bulb in my range hood is a standard T-10 base (like all of the other interior fixtures). The old bulb was similar to vehicle instrument panel lights (maybe a #194???, smaller, less light output). Probably not a true T-10 base but, the T-10 base LED fit and works.
Remove the plastic lens and see if the existing bulb will pull straight out. There is not a lot of room to work in there but, it is doable.
Wattage...about any LED you get is going to require less power than the old incandescent. Pick how bright you want it to be.
