Re: Taillight bulb numbers
1157 is the standard two element tail light/stop/turn bulb.
2357 is the brighter replacement for those.
Note: if the insides of the housings are painted black do yourself a favor and paint the inside of the housing bright white from the start. That alone will make your tail lights a lot brighter.
Remember that you have to have a real good ground for the lights. A lot of time they don't ground to the bed or body because the paint insulates them too well.
