Default A truly "appearance" mod....but I know some of you will want these....

http://www.lumineedles.com/


These are two cool guys that contacted me about doing a photo shoot of these being installed on my car. They will be doing the install tomorrow morning, so I'll be sure to post up some pics of them installed. I think they're gonna look killer in amber on my white faced guages.

are they self illuminating, or do you need to add different lights to the acutal cluster. If they light up on thier own, they are gonna make a killing.

Check out the website...

They are specially made needles that are infused with a uv reactive material that light up under a small uv light that sits up under the cluster. They light up brighter than if they were internally lit...and this way you won't have the needle lit in one area thats brighter than the rest....the whole thing glows.

Hmmm... That would be kinda cool if they matched your gauges perfectly.

Oh man I knew this was going to be bad. Wrong site for this. And as far as leaving some feedback on the product I don't think theyre going to sell well here but theres a certaing sub-group of the import culture that will love this stuff.

Oh, so they like, you know, glow and stuff?

I bet a lot of people will buy them. Anything that lights up will sell in the import market, it's a proven fact.

Hey, you guys don't have to buy it or even like it. I'm just putting it out there for those that care. I could care ****-all as to what you think is "rice" or not. I just want to help out a couple of cool guys going broke making something they think people will like.

Again, as I stated before, if it lights up, it will sell, people will be lined up to buy this stuff.

It would be cool if they could make one that acts like a shift light (patent pending)

Soon it'll be unique to have needles that DONT glow.

It would be cool if it was dirt cheap or was the entire gauge face.

Think about it- if the entire face of the cluster was made to glow like that it would be pretty sweet.
