They are just SMD LEDs on the dash, which Nissan and other car manufacturers have been using for a long time. It is possible to heat off the old one and solder on a new one--look at some videos on youtube and you'll get an idea what to do. The dealer of course take the shotgun approach and replace the entire unit.
Taking out the gauge cluster is kind of a pain in the butt but it is possible. People on g35 driver and myg37 have done it and shared their experiences.
Personally, if it were under 1K I might consider having them just replace it, but prices are all over the place.
