I'm not sure if you are trying to awnser my question or not. However I know the bulb size is 194. I don't agree that a 194 is a 194! If you look at these bulbs:

WLED-x5 (194 type) Wedge Base bulbs Specifications

You actually have to fiddle with the LED's to get them to fit in the cluster. I am looking for the brightest possible LED's that can fit inside the cluster without modifying it. The bulbs with 13 LED's are obviously a lot longer than a normal 194 bulb so I just want to make sure they fit before I spend close to 60 dollars on something.

That will vary on the manufacture of the bulb then. I know part stores have a crap load of regular bulbs (non leds). So there is a standard on sizes, just not which ones use which and where.

incorrect. It does matter if you get them off of the bay or from a dealer. Big difference.

And they also don't spread the light like the ones I have posted. I have gone though many different LEDs in my time enough to know. All the way up to the 16's

Sure, a knock sensor is a knock sensor. But get a cheap knock off and it will kill your engine. Same applies to Axles, clutch cables, MAF's. I can continue all day.

194 bulbs from eBay lasted 3 weeks before they started blinking then went completely out.

Seriously, listen to this guy, he is the one that pointed me to the right direction right of way (SuperBrightLEDs). Later I decided to use eBay and it failed miserably. I went back and spent the buck at SuperBrightLEDS.
