Very common problem. There is a vendor here, Lextech lighting, that can fix them.

as mentioned above, lextech seems to be the only "company" that has been able to do the needles, and i haven't tackled them yet,

i have done the speedo/tacho lights to LEDs in 4 colors if your interested, but the needles will have to be ordered from lextech

Thanks for the info dude. It looks great. As I said mentioned in my first post that my speedometer needle is out, tach meter and needle light is out and unfortunately so is fuel needle light.

So do I need to replace the whole cluster or you can send some parts out that I can replace?

i can't replace the needles yet, i've been trying to locate a spare cluster that i can purchase for cheap just to rip apart, but haven't been able to find one, and i have other things on my plate that are coming first, such as changing the window switches to red or white LEDs, front mount, boost controller, a bunch of gauges, and replacing the stereo,

all my needles light up brighter than new for some reason so i haven't really "needed" to change them except to change the color,
