I found a flexible LED strip at Autozone for $15. I have a 1980, not sure if the instruments are lit the same way, but I only had to cut off the old chain of 3 bulbs, crimp the lead from the LED to the hot wire and ran a ground over to the dash panel. Probably 10 mins install and it throws a nice bright blue light on all the gages. Now I need to do the same for the clock and heater controls.
