I bought from V-LEDs. Good stuff. The 194 High-Powers (not the style on there now) didn't fit in my puddle lamps, though...

Other than that, they're great.

The new ones might fit. The pictures are different.

I could probably make them fit, it appears that the problem is with the wires coming out of the wedge base, and if I were adventurous, I'd give it a shot.
