Rear turn signal lamp replacement (rant)

I've searched the board for this , but nothing I can find. One of my rear turn signal lamps went out. It's toasted, so I think it's not the grounding. Went to Schuck's to find the replacement - only available at Saab dealers. The pins at the base are offset by about 30° rather than being diametrically opposed. I would have though this "GM" product would use more easily available lamps. Even my C900 had lamps I could find almost anywhere.
So I bit the bullet & headed to the dealer. Open on Saturday mornings a month ago - now closed. Funny how they advertise to my 20 year+ Saab loyalty, but can't post that they're going to stop being open for parts on Saturday mornings now. Scheise! ( I don't know how to say that in Swedish, but it's gotta be close.)
Anyone have any rationale for using such a unique lamp? I'm flabbergasted.
