It doesn't surprise me. When I changed my rear lights, I discovered the orange flasher bulbs were just reverse bulbs with a sawed tooth to force it in place.

Yes my flasher uses the offset ones. I guess the folks were just cheap and hacked one of the lower pins out to make it fit in and hold with only one pin.
