Those would most likley not fit...and you don't have to go that far (number of SMDs/output wise) for license plate bulbs.

This will do:

is there a difference between 194 and 2825 because in listings if it says 2825 it will have 194 as well for example

Problem is, on the GS, the Bulb sits at an angle, so you miss out on most of the direct beam pattern, esp from LED's.

They work fine on my GS. There's still plenty of light.
