Anybody ever seen a dual contact interior light socket? I've seen 1157 bulbs wedged into a 1141 socket for more light. The first indication is a melted lens, followed by a melted fixture. Not good.
Years ago we had a small Class C that had a couple of interior lights that used dual filament 1157's in fixtures with "High/Low" switch settings. I don't know if the fixtures were OEM or not.

Dual pin bases do not utilize the socket as a polarity connection. 2-pin bases are used in vehicles where both polarities are to be run a distance. On the base the index metal pins are not staggered. Auto Parts stores commonly have rubber mats on the counter showing a master inventory of small bulbs. GE and other firms display them on the internet web sites. This will give you the correct base index which you can use for LEDs

Exactly!
The numbers describe the physical and electrical aspects of the lamp. You don't put gasoline in a diesel or shampoo in the dishwasher!
