Default Dash Bulbs

Does anyone know what the spec on the dash lights are in a 94? The one that illuminates my tach is burned out. Also, Im sure I can figure this out, but anyone have a link to instructions on removing the instrument panel so I can get to said bulbs? Also, would there be a different bulb, maybe a whiter bulb to use, replace them all? Just wondering.
Plan on hitting the auto parts store, probably O'reilly's since its close to where I work later today, not sure what bulb I need and my book is down in my shop. (feeling lazy this morning). :-)

Unhook battery
Remove dash trim in surround
2 screws behind it
pull out carefully on surround there r 3 clips on top. If have dual tanks or auto 4x4 carefully remove plugs on said switch . The he surround mounts break easy
Once loose turn key on brake put in dive to get shifter out of way the surround will come out easy.
Put in park
Next on auto trans there is a small cable that runs under col om . For first timer I say to remove bottom trim panel as its quick and the cable breaks easy .
unhook cable .
remove outer screws on house of cluster (lense can stay on)
pull straight out on cluster and try to remove wire plugs (roll cluster face up and into dash for more room)
Remove cluster
I'd swap all bulbs bulbs its up to you .
Hint clean/polish the clear plastic things on back that help spread the light out .
reinstall reverse
