I removed the bulb holder and sikaflexed a couple of these, at a slight downward angle, in its place soldering the original wires to the bulb end caps then linking wires to the second bulb.
Far brighter than the original bulb

If you mean the bulb I linked to make sure it's the right way round.
From memory they are polarised only working with the wires the correct way round.
If it doesn't work swap the wires.
They are such a low wattage you could tightly wrap the wire a couple of times around the end cap, make sure it works then a blob of sikaflex to stop the wire from vibrating off.
