how easy to do this

Yep dead easy apparently you just need to remove the pannel which is easy although the wheel gets in the way a bit so removing that would be easyer if you want to do it. However to remove the whel you may need to mess around with the airbag.
Best option is to disconnect the battery for 20minutes to ensure the airbus completly fat regardless of if your removing the wheel or not them remove the dash pannel the LED are dead easyas Ive said to change although I cannot remember what the spec of them is you could replace them with whatever LED as long as there not to powerful though.

Got this of a german clio site, translated it in babblefish for you all, it reads a bit wierd but you can make out what to do.
Blue TAC main header shining
This guidance is to help R-S phase 1 with the change on a blue TAC main header shining with the Clio (phase 1 should not give much deviations!) with the remaining Clio B.
Necessary material:
- 10 blue SMD LEDs with high brightness (approx. 140mcd) and Iv = 20mA
- 2 Torx screwdrivers (1x for the screws of the Amaturenbretts and 1x a size smaller for the Tacho)
- soldering irons with suitable soldering point for SMD
- filler wire
- Entloetlitze or Entloetpumpe
- fork
- pencil
Development of the cover of the Amaturenbretts:
When first must the cover of the steering wheel is removed, in addition the 3 Torx screws on the lower surface of the steering wheel cover to solve. Afterwards it applies to loosen 7 further Torx screws to be removed per one laterally (Tuere open completely, then one can see them), three screws in the louvers with the windshield and last is still 2 screws direct under the Tacho, which became visible when removing the steering wheel cover. So that the cover removed, still the A-columns can weden lining must be removed (are only attached). Now the whole Amaturenbrettabdeckung can be pulled out toward interior.
Development Tacho:
After the cover of the Amaturenbretts far away is visible will the Tachomodul and can through solve from 4 Torx screws and plug off the two wires to be removed. At the wires it has two levers, with which the strands are loosened from the Tachomodul.
Change Tachomodul:
Now where the module is developed, this must be also still divided. First remove, is only attached the cover plate. Afterwards the Torx screws (small size) on the back of the module loosen, so that the cover on the back can be removed. Now still remove, is likewise only attached the cover on the front. So that one to electronics ran comes must also the pointers be removed. Note: Before absolutely the 0-Stellungen of the pointers marks. The pointers can be taken off with the help of the fork, but proceeded carefully, not pulled too strongly! If all pointers are distant, also the Tachoscheibe can be separated from electronics. Now it applies to exchange the LEDs. Ever two LEDs with the Tacho and tachometer, per one with the tank announcement and with the coolant temperature announcement and four LEDs for the background lighting of the on board computer. When the old LEDs removes first carefully (entloeten!), afterwards the new solder (note: polarity!).
The original LEDs (orange) needs a tension of 2.2V, the blue however approx. 3.5-3.8V, therefore possibly also still the Vorwiederstaende must be adapted. With the lighting of the measuring instruments (Tacho, number of revolutions, tank and water temp.) I have 0 ohms of reconditions used, since the tension is anyway too deep, not to adapt during the background lighting 47 ohms depending upon leuchtstaerke of the LEDs ists however necessarily the pre-resistors.
On the mk1s the bulbs are clear and the panel has an amber sheet on it !!
im gonna do it to mine eventually !! Ive got the LEDs just wanting some spare dials and clear or blue perspex !!
Only if you mod it to do that !! but anything is possible !!
