Thumbs down Replacement fog bulbs don't fit...

This is where I got my fogs. I purchased a pair of H11 bulbs from http://www.lightingresearch.com/metal_white/h11w-55.htm

The bulbs are METAL WHITE H11 12V 55W (Sold as pairs)

Part#: H11W-55 $45.99

I got this recomendation on another threat in this forum. Now I tried to replace the bulbs but the distance between the metal things that hold the bulb inside the lamp and the rubber is about 1mm larger than the original. That makes the replacement bulb hang in there way too loose - the rubber doesn't even have a chance to seal. Now I try sending them back

Anyone experienced the same? Maybe got another source where to get fog bulbs that match the Xenon?

Thanks
Michael
