Additional Notes

The 1157 is the specified license plate bulb size for the Hino FFC1 across the 1987-1988 model years.
The 1157 bulb follows the ANSI standard, making it a regulated specification recognized across the United States and Canada.
As a dual-filament bulb, the 1157 carries two separate filaments within a single envelope, rated at 21W and 5W respectively.
The 1157 operates on a 12V electrical system, consistent with standard automotive voltage.
The BAY15d bayonet base is a double-contact offset-pin mount, meaning the two pins are positioned at different heights to prevent incorrect insertion during fitment.
The dual-pin offset design of the BAY15d base is a critical fitment detail, as single-contact or non-offset bayonet bases are not interchangeable with this socket type.
