Latest recommendation is a very light greenish color. See LPM article on
same; studies done on it lately. Supposedly doesn't effect color recognition
as much as red; and other items that don't come to mind at the moment.

Actually I am begining to really  like the idea of one LED shining 
directly on the instrument as mentioned by Nick N29TM.
I think I will try to install the LED in the end of a small copper
tube and bend it around like a miniature goose neck lamp.

As Nick pointed out LED's come standard with a lens that narrows
the area shined upon unlike grain of wheat T 1-3/4 incandescents.
