I went thru the same ordeal the other day. That 2057 would not twist-n-lock into the socket. I used a 1156(?) instead. Seems to have worked. I'm wondering if the previous owner had replaced the socket.

Don't know if your are the same as european ones but did you look at the bayonets on the bulb? If the bulb has combined stop/tail light elements then the bayonet pins are offset and the bulb only goes in 1 way.
