Well, sorry for the loooong delay, but here's a followup (a year late).
I had ordered the T-1 standard LEDs from superbrightleds and did nothing with them for almost a year. Finally my clock bulbs went as well, and I realized how much I use that clock, so decided it was time to replace the bulbs.
(The clock takes larger bulbs, which I eventually ordered from the dealer- about 11 bucks per bulb, 2 needed.)
I also installed the LEDs I had bought, but was disappointed that they were much dimmer, with uneven lighting on the center console.
So I figured no biggie, since all 8 LEDs only cost about $13. I went back and ordered the high-output LEDs to give them a try.
The result was about the same- relatively dim and uneven
I think the problem is that the LEDs do not radiate enough light from the sides- the original bulbs appear to be incandescents with an amber filter, which would have a wider angle. The high output LEDs are listed as having a 120-degree angle, but I think they are also longer than the original bulbs, which seems to limit the range of the light being thrown to the sides since they penetrate further into the console.
The gentleman at Airport Infiniti Parts has been very helpful, but so far has not been able to find original console bulbs. The clock looks great, though.
So, if I find anything better, will post back. In a year or less.
