3357 Bulbs: Tail / Brake / Signal

[shoon]

Trying to find 3357 bulbs and cant seem to find them anywhere locally for some reason. Were they discontinued and replaced with another bulb?

Checked the owners manual in the Taurus and it calls for 3357, same with the sylvania website.

3157 bulbs will work but are apparently less wattage and ~100 lumens less or so. Anyone else encounter this? Thinking of just slapping some 3157's in and calling it good but it is noticeable that some bulbs are slightly dimmer.

Don't 3457s work for that too?

I use 3457s in my '95 and LEDs in my '93.

Ford replaced them with 3457 bulbs many years ago. F5DZ 13466 C, replaced the old F2DZ 13466 D 3357.
