Per what's contained in the kit from eEuroparts at the link, it looks like you need:
4 - 5W T10 bulbs
2 - 1.2W socketed bulbs
Note that LEDs will probably not be dimmable with the current rheostat setup in your 9000 - LEDs are dimmed by modulating (vs. lowering) the input voltage, so you will need some sort of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) circuit to control them. I installed LED instrument bulbs in my Volvo 1800E and will admit that the instruments went from barely readable to almost too bright. Would be a bigger deal if I drove that car often at night, but I rarely do. I got the bulbs from superbrightleds.com which has a large selection.
