Default Q: Replacement instrument cluster lights?

Hey all, I have a 2001 S281 S/C. The dash lights are very dim and I want to replace the lights in the cluster. These are not glow gauges, it's the 200 mph gauge cluster. I read another thread that said it can't really be done because they are reverse lit or something. Is the cluster similar to the GT one where I can replace the lights on the back of the unit? Hoping to get some LED's in there. Any help is appreciated.

I believe you can swap to LED cluster bulb lights.

Yes you can replace the back like the GT cluster. It is a 194 bulb.

I did it to mine and it made no difference at all. I thought i was tripping so i put one half standard bulb and one half led and it was exactly the same. Tbh i was pretty bummed because i love the way they look but just wanted them to be brighter
