Default 88-91 civic LED cluster bulb replacement question

Okay, after a little searching I found that the small wedge bulbs in the cluster and climate control are #74 and I have found those LED replacements. But what are the larger wedge bulbs that provide the backlighting for the gauges and the small twist-lock-in bulbs that shine down on the needles? This is for an 89 Civic btw.

Anyone? I went to the local pull your own parts junk yard and got a bunch of bulbs today to replace the burnt out ones for now, but I'd still like to find out which bulbs are what in the LED equivalents.

i know this is an old thread but it has false information and i wasted a lot of time with trial and error by having to buy these bulbs then send them back

pretty sure i used 5 74 bulbs(3 for the backing and 2 for overhead) and only 2 24 bulbs on my 1991 dx hatch cluster
