    They look to me like they will be too long to fit the rear license plate holders or the front markers above the headlamps.

    You can go a little longer than the stock bulbs, but there isn't a lot of additional room beyond..

    They are 7440 for the turn signals, not the markers

    Right you are... missed that important distinction. Then I'd say the Cree is well regarded and my only personal concern would be that resistors would be required to match the load of the regular bulbs to avoid the rapid flash rate. Otherwise you have to change the turn signal flasher that is buried up above the manual foot brake under the dashboard.
