Default Instrument Cluster LEDS

Hello everyone.

I have a problem. Apparently, the previous owner didn't like the fact that the CEL was on and cut off the LED. When I opened it to changed the bulb, I found that it is an LED that was cut off. Not sure if I want to buy a new cluster. I'm thinking about just soldering some new one (and also the service 4x4 because it was cut off also). Not sure if the Service 4x4 light was on but assuming it was cut off, it probably was.

My question is:
Does anyone know what type of LED it is and where to get one?

Thanks,
Ed

Also, I know the CEL is yellow but what color is the service 4wd?

Okay, I removed the cut-off LED leads and soldered in some 5mm Yellow LEDs from RadioS and now it is working like a charm The CEL is on (as I suspected) and the Service 4WD light comes on for test and then shuts off.
