gauge needles
 

Hey guys im new here, but i have a question about 1998 Prelude gauge needles. Are they tinted red or is there paint on them to make them look red. If there is a paint could I take it off with paint thinner? Im new to hondas so could anyone help me out

no as far as i know the plastic is made with red on it besides taking off the needles is a risk, they may never work rite if dont know exactly how to take them off

why do you want to change the color?

be VERY careful if you are taking needles off, the mechanisms behind it are so delicate and fragile, easy to mess them up.

Can you explain how turning the needles white would be rice http://images.honda-tech.com/set1//smile/emcrook.gif I'm guessing changing the A/C control a different color or gauges a different color would be rice as well uhh https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...es/emdgust.gif

The needles will be the same color as rice. You know, rice is usually white--duh.
