Sounds like a connection problem.
Double check the positive connections (from +12V) and also the ground connections (usually black wires with white stripes going to the body).

Is it easy to change one or two back to bulbs (ie using some bulbs and some LEDs for different gauges at the same time)?
If the bulbs also flicker then it points more strongly to a connection problem.
