Are talking LED cluster illumination or an electronic display?

If you mean the LED bulbs then yes it's a fairly easy job. A simple search should help with ordering the correct bulbs. I'd leave the battery bulb and headlight indicator bulbs stock since the LEDs are noticeably brighter.

I installed LEDs with 5 SMDs on each bulb and had to put electrical tape over the SMDs facing toward the driver to dim them down. It was blinding. Buy low lumen bulbs. I love bright lights but the cluster is no place for super bright lights.
Another con is that the dimmer switch next to the clock won't work with standard LEDs without a modification. Wasn't an issue for me as once I never adjusted the brightness anyway once I got it where I wanted it.

I am using this to slowly switch out my bulbs to LED's. the document has a cross reference for the bulb type and LED type. I have not gotten to the dash/electronics cluster yet, but the attached documents seems to have worked well for me so far. I do not know who created this but they did an excellent job. I found it buried somewhere on the internet.
