The bulb is a standard 1156 type bulb, (actually a 1073)
The socket the turn signal in an E-code headlight.
It doesn't fit. The slots in the socket that the pins on the bulb go into aren't 180° apart, so the pins on the bulb don't line up.
I've never seen or heard of anything like this.
So.. what am I missing? I confess I've never looked too closely at an amber 1156, are the pins on them not 180° apart? I always thought they were interchangeable (mechanically) with clear 1156 bulbs.
