I used leds in my main cabin lights and they were too dim so I went with the japanese colored glass bulbs. They never fade unlike the cheap auto parts store crap.

Yeah I wouldn't change the cluster bulbs to LED's you will get dead spots. I've never seen one with LEDs that didin't have dead spots. Now the radio and HVAC controls area different story. you can do them. But they just don't slide right in you have to have a little understanding of electronics to get them to work. led's run on 5v's or less. where as your normals bulbs have 12 going to them. To get them to work you will have to wire in resistors. Do a search somebody did I very detailed install instruction about a week ago in the electronic's section
