9007 bulbs will not fit in place of 9007 bulbs. If the parts place you went to didn't have 9004s you should probably find a different parts place... every US car with single headlamps from ~1985 to ~1995 uses 9004s.

9004 and 9007 lamps have the filaments 90* to each other. Not compatible at all with the fixture designed for the other model lamp.

Please do not install HIDs into your US light fixtures. It will not work properly, you will not be able to see better, and it will blind oncoming traffic.
