Additional Notes

The Ski-Doo MX Z 800 uses the 1157 bulb for the brake light position across the 2000-2010 model years.
The 1157 is a dual-filament bulb, meaning it contains two separate filaments within a single glass envelope, allowing it to serve both a high-intensity and a low-intensity function from one unit.
The bulb operates on a 12-volt electrical system and draws 21 watts on the high-intensity filament and 5 watts on the low-intensity filament.
The 1157 uses a BAY15d bayonet base, which features two offset pins at different heights on the base, a design that prevents incorrect insertion into the socket.
The 1157 designation follows the ANSI standard recognized in both the United States and Canada, placing it within a widely standardized classification system for automotive and powersports lighting.
Because the BAY15d base has offset pins, it is not interchangeable with single-pin bayonet bases or with the 1156, which shares a similar physical form but carries only a single filament and a different pin configuration.
