I did the speedo bulbs in my pre facelift GC with white LED lamps, won't be able to get any photos today though.
Could be these:http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/12v-096w-w...ent-type-wq13p

If you have one, put a multi-meter across it, measure it's resistance.
Then Current = Voltage /Resistance,
so Current = 12/Res.
After that,
Wattage = current x voltage, so
Wattage = 12 x current from above.
Pick whichever bulb gives you the same, beware of going too high a wattage, it might melt the holders etc.

I just bought T10 fitment white SMD LED lamps off eBay. Direct fit and good brightness. You can have a single LED because they don't spread the light around enough. I'll post a link to what I bought.
I've had them about 8 months or so.
