Hi there,
Believe it or not, that IS NOT an LED, it's a regular tungsten bulb with a blue rubber cover over it! I've replaced quite a few of these now and i do replace them with LED.
The main problem/difference is that an LED doesn't diffuse light in the same way, it's a lot more targeted, so you either need an LED with very wide beam or replace with a regular panel bulb.
Search ebay for rectangular LED and you should fine what I've used in the past:
Hopefully that'll help.
Oh and a word of caution, the boards and circuit traces are VERY fragile, I've had to re-make a lot of them with replacement wires because as soon as the soldering iron touches them to remove the old bulb the traces peel off the board and fail.
