Those are the right bulbs. All you have to do is to dremel/file/sand off one of the two nubs on the bulb to get it to fit. They work just fine.

YAY, They fit! Thanks for the help, i had to sand them down and then stuff them in the socket but there dumb bright now
Now all i need to do is install the H3 fog's, but i dont have a lift, and its not as easy as twisting a bulb out like the other lights on my car. anyone in NYC wanna install them for me? hehehe otherwise i'd have to bring it somewhere and pay

Well judging by your sig you car isnt lowered so it should be really easy. Just get under the front of the car and pop off the tabs that hold the slash guard on. Also remove the 2 screws holding it on too. Then you will see a little cup shape thing with a black screw in it. Remove that black screw, and unclip the wire harness and push on that thing like a ***** untill it pops out. Your gonna really have to muscle it out, its the only way. make sure you catch it too so it doesnt break. Then when you got it out unscrew the black back and pull back the metal retainer. Its self explanitory after that.. I can do a bulb in like 5 min now since i have changed em like 3 times.

Do a search on the fogs...there are very helpful tips to changing them. The first one might be harder but the second side will be a breeze.
