After trying again, its clear they dont fit. From what I can tell, the OEM housing prevents the PIAAs from fitting. The PIAAs are too fat for me to push thru the plastic housing into the socket.

I run a 07. Maybe that is the reason?

Ill try to post a picture of it. Thanks again.

I am thinking the blub size is bigger than the OEM size for the 168/194. I Tried fitting an 12 LED 194 into the running parking lights. No go. Only the small wedge 168/194 lights will fit. So I got the 6 LED 194 light instead.
