Brake light bulb size

Searched and checked the repair manual but couldn't find it. What size bulbs are needed for the brakelights, the two prong and the one prong? 1156 or 1157? They went out a couple weeks ago and I used 1157 for the two prong and 1156 for the one prong. The light is out again this morning.

at my walmart, theres a catalog thing by the bulbs and it lists all the bulb sizes for every lamp in/on the car. that should help

EDIT: Kragen/Schucks/Checkers should know too
