I've used these on my camper festoon lamps and they make a great difference to the light output and reduce the load on the battery.
Get the higher output ones though like these

LED's will dim a little when the voltage drops but not like incandescent bulbs and this does not damage them ... you must be the only person in the UK who dims their dashboard lights!
