Default Gauge Cluster LED Help

I figured this would be the right section if not feel free to move it no harm. I bought Blue Led's from Brian 2006 on here for the gauge cluster. First of all I am not mad at him and complaining just have a few questions. I bought these a couple months ago but, had family issues so this weekend was the first I could attempt to put these in.

First off they dont seem to fit into the holes for the gauge cluster. I have flipped them 180 deg. just as the instructions say on the bag. Still didnt work. Also I only have 5 leds, and there are more than 5 light holes for them to go in. Can someone tell me what hole to put the LED's in.

Thanks
Chris

you only need 5 leds. If you figured out how to get your cluster out, I am suprised you can not figure out where to put the lights. You need to pull the lights directly behind the oil pressure, fuel, tach, speedo and the random light in the middle. Plug the cluster back in and you can tell if you misplaced one. Unless you are looking for blue turnsignal lights etc.. 5 is all you need

Im just saying when I last tried it seemed that the Leds were to fat, and didnt want to sit in the holders. Do I need to sand them down?
