What type of bulb for gauges?

I'm going through my entire car and replacing it with LED bulbs from superbrightleds.com ... they are amazing if anyone is looking to do this.

For my interior I've replaced my dome light, two rear view mirror lights, and my center console compartment light with white. All have been 194 bulbs.

I took off my center console and shifter and was going to replace to light on the shifter that shows what gear you're in, I thought it was 194, but it was really small. What bulb is that???

And also what bulbs are in the gauges and for all the heater and a/c controls? Thanks for the help!

The small bulb in the console might be a #161?

Yeah that's what superbrightleds.com has it listed as, but when you click on them to view the options they're all 194's and it says that they are the replacement bulbs for the 161's...but to me it doesn't look it would fit?

The only wedge bulb that I know of that's smaller than a #194 is a #74.
