12v on an led assembly designed for 8v ac or dc will dramatically overpower it- led will burn out for sure. If you have a spare, you could put another resistor in series- to reduce the current- which would let the 8v led assembly operate normally. I like the bright spectrum though I also like the cooler incandescent if its a clear bezel- the 5700's is a great candidate for that, I did an onkyo a while back with an incandescent indicator liked that too.
