There's also a difference in the pin configurations. If you look at a P21W from the bottom, the two pins are aligned in a V shape, but on an 1157, they're straight across from each other. A lot of European car companies use P21W bulbs for the front and rear blinkers. For the US market, they get substituted in the front for the dual-filament 1157 so they can serve double-duty as blinkers and parking lights. European cars don't usually have orange parking lights. The 1156 is our single-filament version, but with the same pin configuration as an 1157. I have P21W sockets in my NG900's front blinkers so I can use Philips Silvervision bulbs.
