BA9 conventional bulbs or BA9-5SMD for the LED's. I couldn't get the LED's to work in the neutral or turn indicator circuits (probably because other things use those circuits). The high beam indicator and oil light aren't on enough to bother with.
The BA9 incandescent bulbs are rated at 7 watts and the LED's are about a 1 watt draw so your stator will see some power savings as well.

I hear you there. I should have been more detailed to what bulbs I replaced. Just the gauges bulbs. x5. I have the signal lamps (dash) to do yet. Guess I could use the extra bulbs there. I have a handful of them. Super Bright LEDs will do a refund and either put it to getting what I want. But I'm not one to play with shipping and refunds. I'll use them.

I use LEDS from superbright. GET THE ONES THAT HAVE THE WIDEST ANGLE (which are usually the brightest) LED lights can be very unidirectional which don't work well in the gauges
