From an old post, 194 LED bulbs would be one option, they are supposedly brighter.
Another option would be 168 bulbs which are standard bulbs but brighter than the 194.
This came from a post in the 6.9L diesel forum and, of course, would only apply if the bulbs in your truck are 194s.

would you be able to find those bulbs in a auto parts store or where would you buy them cause i just replaced my gauge bulbs with led autometer bulbs and now the gauges are brighter then the dash lights
are the bulbs green and how many are there too and also how hard is it to do i was planning on doing it today
Its SUPER EASY!!! I just did my whole instrument panel Big time diff w/168's over 194's. Just don't lose any screws!!!

Can you get different color bulbs? Like maybe just some whiteish light not green? or blue maybe?

Bulbs are white, the color comes from tint in the dash cluster.

It will work but it will change some of the colors in your dash display.
