4 sets sold, ONE SET LEFT!! 4/11/2013

Up for grabs, 5 sets of clear gauge needles. Change your red SVT needles over to the clear ones and backlight them any color you want. Cheap mod that really makes your gauge cluster pop! The needles are the exact same as the SVT ones (weight, length, looks) only clear so they will look & perform perfectly.

$17 each set shipped (lower 48, extra to Alaska, Hawaii, & Canada)

how hard is the install?

Getting the new needles perfectly calibrated can be a little tedious, but overall easy install. Takes about 1 hr from start to finish. You will need to order some colored led bulbs for cluster back-lighting. Some led designs are better than others for the gauge cluster, if you need help picking bulbs send me a pm.

1) Top off the fuel tank

2) Remove the black bezel with A/C vents (5 screws)

3) Remove gauge cluster and clear face cover

4) Take 2 teaspoons to each side of the needle and pry up

5) Install new colored led bulbs into cluster

6) Reinstall the gauge cluster in the car with the clear face cover off

7) Start car and let it fully warm up

8) Reinstall the needles. Speedo needle can take a few tries to get set correctly.

9) Reinstall gauge cluster clear face cover

10) Reinstall black A/C vent bezel

Done!
