There are however, the same LED's on ebay, but in a width that's a bit smaller than the ones which I have posted, that SHOULD fit.
I have yet to attempt another order though.
so these LEDs you linked to will not fit our cars because they're too wide? How are they too wide? Can they be dremeled down?

Correct. They did not fit by a millimeter or two.
I assume if you want to go through the hassle of trying to dremel it down, you can. But I'm sure it would be a bit easier just ordering a pair that is a tad less in width than the 2.0 cm.
There are ones with a width of 19mm that might have a better chance in squeezing in the housing. But like I said I have yet to try to order to see if they fit.
the 19mm one's might just do the trick though..
