Default LED light replacement issues

Hey guys. Well I tried to replace my license plate lights with the 6k 194s that iJDMtoy recommended. One light installed alright. Pushing it all the way in, it would light up. I had to pull it about a 1cm out to get it lit up. Tried rotating 180, adjusting wires, etc. The second light wouldn't even go on. Finally I carefully adjusted it to make it light up. I mean I had to move it a mm or so to get it on. Not a second later after I wad about to close up the lights, my tails and plate lights all go out. Blown fuse. Accessing the fuse box was a major PITA. I mean come on Nissan. Anyways, got it all working and decided to ditch the plate lights.

This leaves me with the problem of my parking lights. I have slightly better 6k, 10 LED 194 lights from the same website for this. I don't want to blow any fuses. My friend said replacing the standard 10A fuse with a 15A fuse to take the brighter bulbs. Good idea? Bad idea? I also don't want flickering!! I can do mechanical stuff, not not electrical worth a dang. Any suggestions?
