Although, I do see an error or two, the 1157's and 1156's cross over the same, 1156,and 1157's. Just FYI.

Many parts suppliers will try to sell you "bigger" bulbs cuz they're supposedly better or brighter, when in fact they just don't have/carry the proper ones! |

Another tid-bit, having incorrect resistances will cause your turn signal indicators (in the tach) to both flash, instead or just the left or just the right. Using the correct bulbs and with clean connectors and grounds should make the indicators work correctly.
