Where you can, I would swap in the LED version. There are TWO styles of dash/instrument bulbs. I Have only been able to source LEDs for the larger ones. PDF with info attached
But WILL say LEDs in cluster made an E-P-I-C improvement in brightness and legibility!!! Had not realized how dull the punky little oldies were. Caveat: I do not think these are DIMMABLE thru the rheostat! That said the 'new' brightness was not at all TOO bright to even require dimming...

Nice raven! thanks for the link. So, confused by your comment "was extremely hard to convert to LED..."
What was? Finding the bulbs? install? I have pulled my cluster numerous times, so the install seems pretty straight-forward. To ME. But maybe more daunting for newbie. Curious...
