Ordered these from amazon because it was suggested. I am changing the bulbs in my cluster and don’t know where these go. Any help or diagram is appreciated.

These take a style 194 bulb, German number W5W for 'Wedge Base, 5 Watt'.
I happen to have these in clear, amber, and red if you are interested.

If you look on the rear of the cluster, it clearly says to use a max bulb of 3W. Using a 5W bulbs like Mo Brighta suggests could melt the inside of the cluster or possibility start a vehicle fire. Use the 194 bulb which is supposed to be 3.25W. We use these and they are safe. The 193 bulb is factory, which is 3W. Never use anything more than 3.25W.
The bulbs you bought are wrong but can be used as the smaller indicators.Owner - Bavarian Restoration
