I went to Driver Seat down here and bought the LED 194 bulb for the rear license plate lights and the bulb doesn't fit. The bulb is the correct replacement but as far as fitting in the light housing it hits the lens. Anyone running a different LED that I try in there?

I bought mine from ebay and I had the same problem. I just used a razor to cut a bit of the bottom of the bulb base being careful not to damage the contacts. That shortened the base just enough to fit in the housing.
