I know..asked to death.. gauge cluster bulbs!

Hi all,
I know this has been asked to death, but the sheer volume of posts adds to my confusion instead of helps me.

LONGGGG time ago, I managed to replace some of my gauge cluster bulbs to blue.. I don't even remember doing it!

I'm now trying to replace all bulbs to a nice bright white (except for the amber lcd screens - those will stay).

I've replaced the the big 4 obvious ones when you take the cluster out, but when I separate the white cluster from the rear back housing, that's where I'm a little stuck. I found the 2 big wedge style bulbs and replaced those ok. But I see 6 more of the small tan push and rotate style bulbs.

Can anyone link me to direct replacements for those that are led and bright white?

would these work?

https://www.amazon.com/10Pack-Instrument-Cluster-Dashboard-Automotive/dp/B099RPJHK9/ref=sr_1_9?crid=NP1SGHP03B7P&keywords=986%2Bcluster&qid=1706474836&s=automotive&sprefix=986%2Bcluste%2Cautomotive%2C109&sr=1-9&th=1

I bought these: https://www.amazon.com/NSLUMO-Dashboard-Instrument-1996-2001-Temperature/dp/B0C4NXFM79/ref=sr_1_5?crid=1583GFUNOQMFW&keywords=986+cluster+bulbs&qid=1706475486&s=automotive&sprefix=986+cluster+bulbs%2Cautomotive%2C109&sr=1-5

They came with 8 of the smaller style bulbs though.. I used 4 of them for those obvious rear ones, but that only leaves 4 for the inner portion, and I need 6.. so I'm a bit confused on if I'm even using the right ones in the right spots.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Don't care how much they cost or how long to ship, just looking for direct perfect-fit replacements that are LED and white.
