Button bank,
Speedo,

Each of the SMD LEDS on the For4 are PLCC-2 (TANTAL/B) and they are a very common fitment and should cost less than 50p each.This is where I got mine from, clicky.

CrazyLeds can change your SMD LEDs for you. Just ask them.

SMD Orientation

Like most LEDs, they only work one way around. Standard LEDs are marked with a single flat edge and 1 shorter leg. The SMD LEDs have a recessed triangle in the corner, these are marked as red in the pictures.
