Long time, no see! Looks good! Did you buy new needles or do something to the ones you had to make them clear?

Nite pics did not turn out so good. I can see the needles just fine. They glow white/clear. Don't stand out as much as the orange factory, but this looks cooler. Just took stock needles and used nail polish remover to remove the factory orange from the back of the needles then just had the centers color matched to the white face gauges.

So I did a Blue LED conversion to my cluster. If I cleared my needles they too should glow blue? Or do you think I would have to tint the needle somehow? Looks good btw.

If they are clear, Im sure the clear needle would reflect some of the blue light from the cluster, go to the junyard and get some spares and try it out...

I would assume they would glow blue as long as the lights you replaced were the ones that also lit the needles.

Time for me to tear my dash a part again, lol. I think maybe I'll try something a touch different... we'll see what I can do

does anyone know where they offer gauge cluster changes like this for a 94??? i've looked and cant find any for a 94. i think 94 is the only yr they did it the way they have it. its not the same as the other 1st gens and i want to change it so it looks better does anyone know how i could customize it myself? maybe leds?

Not sure what you mean, but I did have the battery pulled out so I just used jumper cables from my mom's truck and connected them to the battery leads on my truck to get power just so I could check the lights.
