that is what APC had in the box for the lenses. i put those in and they did not work. after i put those in, i would turn one turn signal on and both would blink.

You must have different sockets or something, because every 5g civic I know can use 1157 bulbs in their front turn signals... :dunno:

all stock harnesses for that year should use the 1157. (two prong connectors on bulb for dual filament) if your harnesses do not accomodate that...you are not using 1157
