Question Gauge (speedo) light burned out

This has happened to me once before. I had one of the small bulbs that illuminates the gauges go out on me. I had to go to the dealer and order a new one. Installation was pretty easy.

My question is, does anyone have the part number for the small bulbs that illuminate the gauges? These bulbs are on the backside of the instrument cluster.

Also, can these bulbs be bought at regular autopart stores like PepBoys, AutoZone, etc....?

Where can I buy LEDs that would fit in the OEM bulb locations? Will LEDs make the gauges brighter than stock?

I too have this problem. Is it true this happens on '03's more than other years? Anyways, I have some part numbers, but if there is a plug and play LED solution, I would gladly take it!
