Are LED replacement bulbs available for the dash lights for later model MCI busses?

Will they respond to dimming? Don't LED's have to be electronically dimmed?

Yes, they run a3 3.3-5v and will operate directly connected to DC source. If you want dimming you do not do that by lowering voltage like analog bulbs. They are dimmed using PWM that basically flashes them at a frequency to vary lumen output.
