I really don't know how to answer without sounding rude but the simple fact is
That means you bought some off the wall tail lights that have who knows what for bulbs. We have told you what normally fits all regular oem or repro AD truck taillights.
First I would go back to the add I bought the lights from and see if they tell what bulb it uses.
1157 base is 15mm in diameter, you might want to take your calipers out and measure the diameter of the bulb you have. Most every double element bayonet mount bulb I can find is a 15 MM BA15D mount.
This chart shows about every small bulb currently available for 12 Volt automotive lights. https://hlgroup.fi/wp-content/upload...Wall-Chart.pdf
