Instrument Panel Light Bulbs (2002 - V70)

Happy Friday All-
Well I guess these instrument panel bulbs don't last forever and mine are flickering and darkening as we go. What pisses me off is I had sent the whole cluster panel to a shop in Indiana I think less than 2 years ago to have them fix it for around $200 I think. At that time the whole panel was black. Nothing.
What I want to know is there a specific wattage I need to stick to so i don't get any CEL warnings?
I think I found another old post from 2018 that stated the bulb holder P/N was 9472110 and the bulb was 9472109. Does this sound correct?
Will try and fix this on my own this time.

Thanks!

From a previous post here, "oragex" said that all sockets are T5.
The black ones are 3 watts and the gray ones are 2 watts. I was concerned about certain LED bulbs and having them cause a CEL warning light to come on. A tech from "Superlumination" just told me that T5 bulbs usually are not monitored by the "bulb out" warning system.

Those bulbs are so small and wattage so low that LED' will be fine.
