The stock OEM lights tend to melt the cluster and don't light up the dash very well. If you replace them with 5 watt 194 bulbs it just makes it worse although the dash lights up better.
I just bit the bullet and put in 6-led 194-equivalents (google and figure about $6 each) with a nice bright very white light, whiter than the yellow incandescent 194 bulbs, that works better than the oem bulbs.
And by the way...they should last for ten years or more.
