In my car , during day time it is not easy to see warning lights in panel, so I want to know if someone had replaced normal lamps by led lamps. I think they will be better performance than normal lights.
 
Yes, they can be changed - try to get LED lamps that have the LEDs on the front, facing you. Do not replace the ignition (battery charging) light with LED as this is needed to start the alternator. Try: https://www.classiccarleds.co.uk/collections/dashboard-gauge-bulbs-1

It is possible that replacing the indicators warning lamp with LED will speed up the flash rate - it depends on the type of flasher unit that is fitted. If it all goes wrong, an electronic flasher unit/relay will fix the rate no matter what you fit.
 
I have LED bulbs all around except battery charging.
I have put it there also but did not work well. It glowed all the time. So i put normal bulb back and now it is alright.
Aldo main beam indicator light is little to bright in the night for my taste.

I have bought bunch of LED bulbs on ebay and switch inside of LED bulb on old bulb housing so i can out it on panel.
