Default 1998 ES300 LED bulb mounting issue

Hello!

I have obtained a new-to-me 1998 ES300 and I'm in the process of getting all the bulbs on the front end swapped to LEDs.
My hi-beams and my foglights have been swapped but I am unable to secure the led bulb assembly (with the fans) with the retaining clip. The fan is in the way. It doesn't seem to screw directly in either?
The LED that I have purchased has a short connector in which I have plugged into the adapter that the original H7 bulb sat in.

Has anybody got any ideas? I can probably figure something jank that would work for mounting it, but I want to see what people that's been there have done/or recommend.

Much thanks.

This is typical of generic LED modules they don't necessary fit into some housings.

Thank you ~ that probably is the case. I'll probably just look into using some 3M mounting tape. Is there a go-to method that people find effective for mounting generics that you would know of by any chance?
I shall make a trip to the local Autozone tomorrow.
