I replaced these bulbs a couple of years ago:~
From memory they came from car bulbs direct but I can't seem to find them listed now- Halogen are the type for this application.

LED bulbs I'm not sure about- they tend to be quite long if they would be ok?
This area of lighting in the 240 is very poor, I altered the same to take a strip of
of LED (small solid type,not flexible) and this is positioned inside the unit just just behind the perspex cover as you look at the dials, dimmable type.

It tends to flicker a little when the engine runs but is very bright and once turned down it does settle.
The original light transfer on these is passed through clear plastic strips rear to front etc.
I think Mathews Volvo site also gives some decent advice on this.
Regards Bob.
