Default Lamco gauges

Hi there I have recently brought the lamco gauges and installed them the weekend. When I went out last night they were a little bit hard to see so I have searched the net as good as I can to find out about upgrading the bulbs etc.
So far I believe some came fitted with #2723 bulbs and others with a surface mount led.
The question is without taking them apart how could I tell what bulbs mine would have ? Because I seen people saying about popping the front of with a small screwdriver to take them apart and I don't fancy doin that unless I have to. If it turns out that they are fitted with a surface mount led's does anybody know what the part number is or where I could get some from ?
Thanks in advance

Is there not any black rubber disks on the back of the gauges?

I did notice some black rubber bungs on them just below the plugs. Would they be how to get the the bulbs ? The only thing a noticed was some pics on the net show a plastic piece that sticks out where mine have a rubber bung ?

The bulbs are behind the rubber bungs. Pry the bungs off and you will be presented with some plastic locators. If I remember correctly they turn anti clock wise to remove. I have a link at home where I bought bulbs from as they are easy to change. Pm me and when I get home on Wednesday i will send u the link
