yeah.. use can use it.. 3157 is just dual filament.. meaning a low beam and high beam.. low one is use for parking lights while the high one lights up for braking. It'll be fine. Just the one of the filament won't be lit up since the stock is 3057. It'll still be the same brightness.

You shouldn't.. not the inner tails at least. The outer tails I can see where you need to re-wire the leds pins

i have these bulbs in my outers.....3157 red led rotating/flashing, etc....still needed a little modifying because they would not stay in the socket.......look at any import stores....that is where i got mine...

Are these the bulbs you have in the tail lights? Inners and Outers?

nope, mind are high end japenese poop, it is real strong ass black plastic no that cheap see through plastic poop......and i can't tell from the pics but unless it has the little clip bump things on the sides of the base of the plug in part you are going to have to modify like i did otherwise like once a day you will have to take out your tail lights to push the bulb back in snug........
