vintage LED Bulbs Dashboard

Hi,
i am a newby with the 911 carrera

i have just imported from the US to Paris France, a 911 cab 1987
very nice car
would like to get a decent lighting for dashboard and replace old bulbs

LED vintage could be an option now ? or keep the original in 5 W instead of 2 W ?

let me know where to source those

thanks for your feedback

LEDs without a doubt.
Vintage color temperature is the call.

While you're in there add a fuse to the instrument panel lighting circuit.
