If you are at all handy with a low wattage soldering iron, the bulb can be replaced with an LED for a dime or less.
Pull the bulb from the cluster. Carefully lift the glass bulb out of the housing. Unsolder the leads and solder in the LED. Plug it in and check it. If it doesnt light, rotate it 180 degrees.
Folks can argue all they want about which side the resistor should go on. At the end of the day, it makes no difference, just that its there
