Question about Dash/Switch lighting

So my first interior bulb went out today, the light in my Sunroof switch. I know lots of people have done the LED replacements, however I am OCD and the LEDs are too bright and dont match the other lights making it not look good in my opinion. I have searched and cannot find replacements that arent LED that are from sources other than Acura.

In my research I have found different Acura/Honda bulbs with different part numbers but are all switch and dash bulbs. Are these all the same just different part numbers and brightness. For example Acura 35835-SEP-A01 as opposed to Honda 35505-S84-B02?

If I have to I will just go to the dealership and get a bulb but I wanted to find out some other options first.

There is a difference between bulbs for each button.
Some are brighter or dimmer than others, and some are more green or yellow than others.
You can change them around as they all fit, but it might not match the surrounding bulbs in term of colour and brightness.

35835-SEP-A01 is the one you want to replace the original

The sunroof button is one of the easier bulbs to change.
The other bulbs require much more work like removing the steering wheel or disassembling the console. Still easy work, just more work.
