1) How can I find out the size of LEDs used in the Back Light
2) From which website I can securely order the Dual Connection LEDs
Thanks in advance!!

For the size of the LEDs used, the only way to know is to open the Pulsar backlight console and find out. Common sizes include 3,5,8 and 10mm. As I do not have access to a Pulsar LED backlight console, I am afraid I can not help there. The LEDs may even be fixed in such a way that it may not possible to replace the LEDs. So, the only way to know is to examine the LED backlight console.
Regarding websites, I am afraid I do not have much idea. I only know that dual coloured LEDs are available at Ritchie Street in Chennai and Lamington Road in Mumbai. Since, you are not from these places I suggested buying online. Maybe someone else can help you here.

A normal speedo does not contain LEDs. They use 3W bulbs. I have installed the LEDs. It has few normal 5mm white LEDs glued to the underside of the speedo dial.
Here is a pic of a LED -
The 5mm LED I have used is the one at the centre. The rightmost one is 3mm and the leftmost one is 8mm.
