I don't of a kit. Dash lights are T5 for the warning and T10 for the illumination, festoon for the interior lighting. All available on eBay etc.
I have done it to my car. I found that I had to add strip LEDS to the dash illumination as the LEDs were not much brighter than the incandescent. I also found that the turn signal LEDs flashed when turned off that the incandescent did not do. You will need to ensure you insert the LEDs the correct way as they are polarity sensitive and will not work if inserted the wrong way.
Last DO NOT replace the battery/alt light with LED or it will not function correctly.
This may help.
