I used one of those circuit boards with 6 SMT LEDs on. It's pretty bright, you don't really want it too bright so you can turn it on without being blinded when you're driving !

I would post a link but am using my phone right now so not so easy !

The 6 LED one fits fine. You could probably squeeze in a bigger one, but as i said you might fine it is too bright. I think my 6 LED one is almost too bright.
