What size eyes for Obitsu Coco?

Can anyone help? I ordered my Coco from Junkyspot and it lists her eye size as 12mm. I purchased 12mm eyes from safrin doll which arrived yesterday but no matter how hard I push and shove they will not go in! they are wayyy too large to fit in the eye pockets. What size ares are ya'all using in your Coco open eyed 11cm heads? Will 10mm work? The 12 are sooo big, I'm thinking I might need 8mm... I dunno, they would fit if I just used putty and cut off the eye pockets, but thats a lot of work and i rather just buy smaller eyes lol.

Try first warming up the head with a hair dryer then trying. 8 mm's might be too small. That's the same size my Nano-Gretel Haruhi takes.

Thanks :) didnt have a hair dryer so i just took the cap of a ball point pen and kept shoving it in and out and was finally after breaking most of my nails, able to shove the eyes in lol. I'm not sure if i like them, i might get the 10mm animetic from volks, her face is too cartoonish for realistic eyes.
