Bulb Sizes

So i need to change my front left turn signal bulb, and i read in the manual and it says the size is 3157KX (09 Turbo). But i looked at both walmart and canadian tire for that and could not find it. I looked at the books they had there with all the bulbs and it just said 3157. I ended up picking up the 3157NA/LL bulbs because they were the only amber color ones.

Will they fit? I just want to make sure before i open the package etc.. Thanks guys.

Whats funny about that is I took the bulb out of my turn signal and realized it was actually clear when I took it out. I thought it was amber.

Well thats what i thought at first, then i took a good look at it and it looked amber. I originally bought clear ones, but then saw that and returned for the amber.

They're 3157, that's all you really need to look for. The extra letter usually just confuse people and make them think it's a different bulb. As far as color, 07 and up typically use the amber bulbs, while the 05-06 use a clear bulb since their headlights have an amber lens in front of the bulb.
