I have seen LED bulbs listed in Moss and one that they call a "Dash bulb" looks like for the spedo. Trouble is the price and I know there are at least 3 different bulbs in the dash. The one they sell as a "dash" bulb is not to bad at $9 but the others I have seen are approximately $18. Has anyone found the bulbs at a reasonable price? Also I imagine one would have to replace all the "odd" bulb bases to go to a standard format.
 
I ordered mine from a company on Ebay. I used white, but green and red would work if you want that look.

White:

Green:

That took care of the lights for the instruments. They were in China, but they arrived pretty quickly and it was a low cost, low risk transaction anyway.



The smaller BA7 bulbs for the switches and the heater controls as well as the ones in the console I got from SuperbriteLEDs.

Use the same color bulbs as the filters. For example, the green headlight and hazard switches need green bulbs. The white ones will just look washed out.
