Have you tried taking one out and using a tape measure?

I usually find with festoons if you get the middle size you can shorten or stretch the holding clips anyway, not sure if true on the Signum plate bulb holders however...

Think on my vec they were 42 festoons when I replaced them with led's. They strobe for a few seconds when the car is locked but other than that they are fine. No bulb errors
