Im going to do the LED thing. I figured out a way to disperse the light evenly after taking off the green film over our existing gauges, making them actually look like the ones from Lexus etc. It wont look blotchy.

Warning there are other members who have done the LED conversion, and remember them saying that the bulbs burned out often.
Looks great, just sounds like a headache to always be changing bulbs.
