Default Difference between 92-94 needles and 95-96

Please don't respond saying one is orange one is red... But I have a 93 I've been rebuilding for quite some time now I've tackled my cluster lights but cannot find any 92-94 needles in good working order I do however have a perfect set of red 95-96 kicking around I would like to make them work if possible, I've searched around thinking its maybe a slightly different voltage or reversed polarity something that I can alter but haven't gotten any straight answers. I'm aware of Lextech and will rebuild my needles to just have the tip lit before I fork out that much dough.

Thanks in advance for any knowledge you gents have

I am not sure or ever heard of the needles having reverse polarity. Maybe something new, but then again I haven't never heard of it.. I do know the back lighting bulbs have polarity. Contact OLT again, and see what he says, he might have a set of used 92-94 needles lying around and are in need of a new home... GL

I tried the 95-96 in on my 93 cluster and they don't get any power/not enough etc, there is something different about the 92-94 and 95-96 I'm just hoping it's something I can alter so I can use these needles. I will msg OLT about a 92-94 set and see if he has any spares once I have some cash to burn
