I’m looking for bulbs to swap out for the conventional bulbs that came with this car.

Can you show us the actual bulb and socket?
Interesting that the instruction sheet gives two bulb part numbers... Anyways, because there is no real socket, you have some flexibility. There are a whole bunch of direct fit LED options for the various LED bulbs here:

This one is specifically designed for the type of socket shown, but the socket appears to be lacking the terminals so you would have to carefully solder the leads directly: https://stores.towncountryhobbies.com/led-8352ww/
A direct fit replacement for what is shown looks to be this one and again, you would need to carefully solder it like the existing one pictured:

Hope this sets you in a direction, and don't hesitate to follow up with success or more questions!

Actually, that bulb is in a screw socket, the soldering is on the socket. An LED direct replacement would just screw in.
Good eye John! If that is true, @RixTrack can just screw in a https://stores.towncountryhobbies.com/e5-ledww/ previously pointed.
You can see the rim of the socket around the bulb, the actual bulb never has a lip like you see here.

From the instructions proved I would have had an issue tracking down a bulb. I have several sockets with wires leftover from when I retrofitted 40 passenger cars with your flicker-free lights. I guess I cold just clip the wires and attach the sockets and my push in LED bulbs. Thank you
There was a link to the bulb in one of the previous posts, how hard is that to track down?
I don’t see an LED screw base. I missed a lot in my life so I case I will add this to the list😀
