- 4 x 501. There's another 501 for the fuel light, but when I replaced it with an LED it seemed to illumuniate slightly all the time, so I went back to the standard bulb 
- this is a weird Toyota bulb. Maybe an LED could be soldered in its place?- both 286 type bulbs I think.- not sure, probably BA9? ill second that for ya. deffo 501 bulbs Probably a lower wattage though. which ones work best or which ones did you guys use??"White Ultra Bright Frosted Bulb" but they don't seem to be on the site any more. They're not great anyway, they look a bit blue and don't illuminate the dials evenly. The "wide angle" bulbs would probably be better."White Xenon 6 Super Bright Leds (Two Bulbs) Wide (VR Ver)" for the sidelights. They're good, but they're so white that they make the headlights look very yellow - gonna have to get a HID conversion now!

As for the fag lighter I have not attempted that yet however it looks like I will have to de-solder the old bulb and put a new one in its place. pull the clusters out in one peice its always felt like there is somthing else holding it in?? It can also be quite awkward to manoeuvre it over the steering column. And did you remember to remove the black trim that sits in front of the top edge? "How to replace the stock dials with Electro illuminescent (EL) versions". 
... its very very easy..... but they have gone very manky very quickly.... so I have opted for LEDs..... and a couple of pictures.... will post below if its useful...
1) Take a phillips screwdriver into the car with you and go sit in the drivers seat
2) Pull off the gear gaiter
3) Take out the ashtray, if you are like me and have those cute airfreshener balls in it, dont spill them all over the car.
4) There are two screws located behind the ashtray, undo these and put them somewhere safe!
5) under where the cig lighter is, there is another screw, undo this and put it somewhere safe.
6) To the right and under the ignition is another screw, undo this and put it somewhere safe.
7) Pull the lower part of the dash

9) Now that large bit of plastic is out of the way, you will find there is a screw just to the right of the steering wheel.
10) this enables you to take off the placcy bit that goes over the steering wheel and encompasses the vent on the right.
11) Yay another bit of dash out of the way lol.
12) this will free up the little plastic strip that goes over the top of the dials.
13) Right.
14) Dials are now free and hopefully sat in your lap lol.
15) pull out what is in there, and pop in your LEDs.
16) Once they all work.
And best of luck anyone who is gonna do it.
Have fun!
