some of my dash lights are out and i want to change them all out to be led - any instructions or tips on where to buy them

 

I have gotten few LED bulbs from here>>https://www.superbrightleds.com/
Pretty sure they have a tech assistance and might not hurt to check with them about your project.

I would not think that swapping out the dash bulbs would need anything special, just remove and replace....Unless you going for LED's that randomly change color or impulse with sub-woffer or some such craziness, that would require more gadgetry

 

Go on Ebay and pick up two cheap 10 packs of T5 and T10 LED bulbs in white (will be blue when installed) those are the two bulb sizes in the cluster. They are all the same Chinese bulbs and work fine, should be around $5 for each pack. Also LED bulbs have a positive and negative side so when you plug it in, if it doesn't work turn is around and it should work. For illumination there are I believe 5 T10's used and 2 T5's. All of the warning/aux lights like CEL, door ajar, parking brake, air bag ect are all T5 bulbs. All you need to remove the cluster is a 7mm socket to remove around 15-20 bolts in the dash plastics. Good luck.
