Default HID fogs won't fit? Need help....

Was trying to install my HID fogs from LED and they just don't fit!

I compaired them to the factory bulb and the HID is longer. I know the factory part number is 894 and thats what I ordered, yet the bulb says 890.

I tried to contact Nathan but no answer, anyone else have this issue if so please post up and help me thanks.

Thanks Rob

I'm having the same problem with my hid fogs on my camaro. its a bit longer than stock, and its hitting the top and won't allow me to twist it into place. I'm a bit worried in busting the bulb with too much force. any suggestions? maybe sand down the ***** on the bulb?

Don't know how safe it is but there is a small rubber gasket at the base of the bulb on mine. I removed the rubber piece and it fit perfect!
