The last time they would replaced the owner might have replaced both. If one burns out the other is likely not far behind. I wouldn't worry about it.

Here is another bulb guide.

Thanks but even using that I see a couple options for turn signal bulbs. What is the deal?

Ok

here we go
3457 Bulb
want it in amber? 3457NA
want it in long life amber? 3457NALL
Want it in clear? 3457

Want it on a Blister card? add BP prefix, as in BP357NALL = blister package, amber color, long life. Hanging on a peg hood at your local parts store.

Note the bulb number is a industry standard, Silver shell for Euro applications.

end
