another needle thread... why not

[thorco3]

Well, I happened to see traidmarx and soddyreb's threads about painting their guage cluster needles... decided I would join in on the fun as well.

My needles weren't really faded too bad, but I've got a few pics with comparisons. I used a red sharpie instead of paint, they came out very nicely.

want to see with LEDS!!!!

I've used multiple types of LED's, I was never happy with them. they all had terrible bright spots (hot spots)

I just took some new pics, will take a min to upload

Dang, I should do it on my new white face gauges. I love the look of red needles! I wonder how they would look though, my white face gauges glow aqua(UPR ones..).

Couple night pics, the last couple are the most accurate pics to see how they look. The last one is through the window so you can see how bright they really are as well.
