Does anyone know what the bulb type is for the heater control?

Has anyone found a LED bulb that works at this location? If so, what is that bulb type?

The car is a '72. The bulb is the one that illuminates the HVAC controls in the dash.

Those led bulbs didn't work for me in my 69. They don't light the side that needs lighted

The LED's a picky about polarity. I replaced all the dash and heater control bulbs with LED's and a few didn't work so I pulled them out and rotated them 180 degrees and they lit right up.
