Anyone know if i can put these on my car. http://www.importcarpartsplus.com/Needles.htm any help or thoughts would be appriciated. it says you need lexan needles, if you know where to get some or if i can pull the needles from another car let me know.

 

most likly no. the needles in your car (im thinkn u got a rex or hatch) arn't made from lexan. i wanted to do the same thing.

 

i heard u should have red or orange glowing needles cause it screws up your eyes when u look back up at the road.

 

sure try it, see wha thappens

 

E-mail the guy. I saw these on e-bay like 5 months ago and e-mailed him. He told for honda's, if yours is not on the list then it probably won't work, most honda's don't. But e-mail him and he'll tell you if he's tried it on your car or not, he's pretty cool. I asked him since I had a 95 Accord what if I switched my needles with 98+ Accord needles and he told me other people have done similar swaps in different cars so it may be possible.

 

 

I was looking at those needles for some time...
but those kits require you to take out your stock needles, which is bad...one false move will kill your gauge cluster!!

Those are real nice, and you can actually get some bright blue LEDs and wire them under the needle yourself and would work the same way... I'm not sure how the kit would look like, but it's kinda expensive...not worth the price PLUS the risk...only if you have a spare gauge cluster...

 

Import Intelligence carries them hondas Honda
98+ Honda Accord - Hyper Red Only
01+ Honda Civic - Hyper Red Only
97+ Honda Prelude
are compatible with the kit and they say all other hondas will not work at all. http://www.importintelligence.com/

would it b ok to put em w/reverse indiglo gauges or would dat cause a prob?

 

It will work fine with indiglo gauges, actually i think it looks better with the indiglo gauges

 

Alright don't really want to step on the thread but please please please tell me how to change the color of my needles!!!!!

I want them to be white or blue would be nice to.

And where can you get hyper white bulbs for behind the dash?

Thanks guys.

 

Although some of that might be considered "rice", it's some of the coolest looking **** I have ever seen.

 

how long do they last

 

if u got jdm EG clusters.it might work......i think theyre lexan..

 

imo. those will look good on red indiglos. rice? not completely. it's that euro look.

 

if you want to retain accuracy in your gauges Never remove your needles....

oh and taking out your needles(they slide off a spindle)

 

Your needles have to be lexan for that to work and I don't think any of the civics in the US have lexan guage cluster needles.

 

it lists the applicable cars in the add...

 

hehehehe

 

rice? sigh............................

 

Yeah this stuff is super rice.

So anyways no one has any idea how to change the color of the needles?

Well I'll figure it out when I get the rice mobile back on monday.
