So half of my speedometer just went black, I pulled out cluster and found out lots of little removable bulbs on the back of it, they read toshiba v-2. Where can I buy stock replacement and is there a possibility to replace them with led bulbs????

Yup. Go to superbrightleds.com. Direct replacement for the bulbs...super easy and costs under $50. I did mine in red and love it.
 
How many bulbs are there in total in the cluster ?
The same thread that was posted above....Post#15 and even post #25 tells you how many you need for each.

I forgot one more bulb. The ignition key light. Just took my column apart and verified it is a 74 bulb with the yellow/orange condom. I thought there might be a bulb needed for the dimmer but I searched and found that somebody took his dimmer apart and verified there was no bulb in the dimmer.

Here's the total number of bulbs needed and options you have.

11 total LED's needed (74-xHP3 Wedge Base LED bulb)
Includes:
Cluster (7)
HVAC (1)
Lighter (1)
Ashtray (1)
Ignition (1)
Spare (1) - optional
(12 would be needed if you got a spare)

Part number 74-RHP3
(R=Red)

Switches- 6 total LED's needed (NeoWedge 3mm Instrument LED bulb)
Includes:
Cruise Control (1)
Fog Lights (1)
Mirror Control (1)
Hazards (1) -optional
Defroster (1)
Wiper (1)
AC (1)
Spare (1) -optional
(8 would be needed if you got the spare and hazards)
Also remember, the defroster has 2 bulbs. One for the light, one for the indicator. If you want the indicator to light up red (or a different color than amber) you would need another Neo3 bulb for that (9 total for all options).

Part Number: NEO3-R
(3 = 3mm, R= Red)

More options:
2 standard LED's for the cruise on/off lights. These will need to be soldered. Can be purchased from RadioShack or superbrightleds.com.
 
Sylvania 74LL. Remove two screws to remove plastic bezel. Then remove the four screws that hold the cluster in place and pull straight out. Replace the one's that are blown. There are a total of 5 for the speedo and tachometer combined. Literally took me ten-fifteen minutes WHILE I was at work LOL. It's easy ;]. Let me know if you have any questions man.
