The HVAC bulbs from superbrightLEDs.com I BELIEVE are a 73, only thing that takes the T1.5 are the cluster lights, the HVAC bulbs can be pulled right from their socket, as they are a wedge bulb... so no "wire a bunch of ****" as you put it... I'd get the 360 degree SMD LEDs, to get the light more even.

Just a correction for *Bassicfun.* They are actually type 74. I purchased 74-xHP3 in red from superbrightleds and I'm very pleased. The Bulbs found in your ignition ring, HVAC, cig lighter, ashtray, Optional 3 guage cluster and Odometer are type 74.

tthe hvac uses the same thing as the instrument cluster which is a t 1.5. you can also just pull the bulbs and buy them without the twist lock

What's strange is that the 74 size did not fit for me, I had to use a 2721. According to my caliper the 2721 has a base about 2mm longer and made it so the bulb wasn't popping out of the socket.
