Hi guys-

I went to rotate the tires and while i was at it decided to do a body-off anyhow. one of the front bulbs is 1157 NA while the other is just 1157. I am the 2nd owner and the 1st (whom I'm still in contact with) swears the bulbs were never changed or in an accident. Is this a factory deviation? anyone else have this?

steve

ps. you all crack me up
