I checked the manual and cross referenced my car at some local parts stores and they all said that the bulb used was 1157's. But when I went to change the bulb, it was a 3157. Does anybody else have 3157's in the rear lights? '99 Silver Contour SE MTX V6 Drop-in K&N / Masked rear Reflector

I bought these replacement lamps a few weeks ago and they are actually clear instead of amber. They are bright when you have your turning lights on but dim when it is just your parking and/or headlights. You still might be able to find them in amber though. 2000 Contour 2.5L ATX (Medium Steel Blue) Items for Sale SVT Indiglo Guages (NEW) Traction Control/Rear Defrost Switch (NEW) V6 Speedometer/Guage Cluster w/ Tach (51k miles)

You are in for a lot of tickets! The front turn signal bulb is a 3457NA or 3457NALL (amber) and is readily available at any auto parts store. Please go pick up the correct bulb and make the road a little safer for your fellow motorists. 2000 SVT #674 - Check it out!
