If you want to go a bit more high tech.
I found if someone left that 7W bulb from home depot on it would melt the lens plastic.
LED makes no real heat, much brighter and less energy consumed.
Here is where I bought mine:

Sorry I cannot remember the bulb number.
I think it is:
Instrument / Dashboard / Cabin Interior LED Replacement Lights
T3¼ (9mm) Miniature Wedge Based Bulb
they are pricey but if there is enough people interested we can do a group purchase to cut the cost.
I have LED's in my instrument cluster as well.
