Question LED park light installation issues!

I ordered some LED park lights which we supposed to fit B6 audis...

Only problem is, they dont seem to.

The bulb i took out is completely different to the one I'm supposed to be putting in; the one i'm putting in has a flat end with the + and - on either side, and the one i took out is simply a lightbulb.

Am i just stupid, or does it not fit? I sincerely hope i'm stupid cause getting those headlights out was a pain...

For 8 bucks i didnt really expect much, however...

You need some LED lights that look like the ones from V-LEDS.com

Some cars use wedge bulbs, while others (like ours) use the traditional push-and-turn style.

I don't think wedge bulbs are used anywhere on our cars. Other cars, such as many newer Fords, use the wedge bulbs for things like brake lights, turn signals, etc.
