Reading the service manual it does explicitly state 12V so that should mean that the voltage is regulated. In other parts of the manual if a circuit receives full battery voltage it will indicate that. Sorry for the scare.

I usually under-volt LED's by 0.1 to 0.2V to extend their service life, but in this case I don't think it is going to matter whether the LED lasts 10,000 hours or 50,000 hours.
