^i thought so. according to the bulb replacement guide it was 1156. Bought a set and didnt fit, then i noticed the bulb itself had the two nubs making it an 1157.

ebay is your best bet. but keep in mind without resistors, if you put leds in turn signals it will blink very fast.

You can find them here...

They also have the electronic LED flashers, that operate at the correct flash rate with LED or standard filament bulbs.
