I only replaced blown ones on my 99 9-5 & the newer ones were brighter than the old ones so I have a slightly ugly mix in the dash. There are many bulbs in the dash - about 40. If you have a manual car it is a good time to remove the dumb shift-up light bulb.
OEM bulbs are expensive but you can get aftermarket in Pep Boys etc. Aftermarket are just a hair too thick so I used a drill bit to very lightly open up the opening. Two years later they are all fine.
IIRC correctly After 2002, the bulbs became LEDs so I am not sure on replacement after that.
