31mm Festoon tube LED ?

How exactly do the 31mm festoon tube LEDS fit in the dome/map lights in an 08 Sedan? A friend ordered LEDs for his sedan and received these 2 LEDs but we could not figure out how to install them.

We were able to install the wedge style LEDs instead because that looked like the only LEDs that would fit.

Any pictures and comments would be great!

Thanks!

^ the new 07+ does not use feston tube in the dome/map lights, it uses standard wedge 94 led bulbs, while the older gens use the festoon tubes.

Damn, thats what I thought. I was confused because I saw people always talking about the festoon tubes and I thought they had 07+ G's.

Oh well, anyone with an 03-06 G need 2 LEDs?
