I am rebuilding a 90 GSPD and would like to replace the instrument bulbs with Led bulbs. Is this possible and where do get the bulbs to do this?
 
A wide variety of LED bulbs can be purchased from SuperBrightLEDS - link follows -

https://www.superbrightleds.com/

I have ordered many bulbs from this vendor. I do not recall exactly which are correct for the R100GS instrument panel, but I have ordered the bulbs listed below for various bikes; you should check for fit (e.g., size of bulb vs available space) before ordering -


Wedge type -

I replaced the bulbs in my 81 R100RT with LEDs from this company. You may have to pull the original bulbs and compare them to what's in their inventory. They list the dimensions, wattage, lumens etc. for each bulb. I found the replacements to be "plug and play" they also offer different colors in addition to white. Also you might want to contact Kat Dash who has developed a new circuit board with all LEDs for the instrument cluster.
