Just put the same in my doors!!!! CAUTION !! CAUTION !!
Use a Dremel type grinder and grind down the diameter of the thin circuit board just below the LED itself. ALSO GRIND the interior of the area where the LED is being placed. This is all because the post and LED diameter is bigger than the hole it's going into. Use a tapered shaped grinding wheel.

I had to trim the bulbs that I used, but what I did was trim down a bit of the tab that locks the bulb into place. I just shave a little of the outside of the tab and it fit fine. I would be very hesitant about enlarging the hole in the circuit board.
