Celica Forums General Discussion Interior indiglo blue gauges with red needles

I want to change the interior lighting, does anyone have any info. I saw my friends jetta's interior lights and I love them. Indiglo blue with red needles. Indiglo blue everywhere is what I want.

The needles won't glow red at night because of the blue led's behind your gauges, unles you buy a needle kit. Here is a pic of mine with blue needles and the web site to buy the needle kit which is not cheap. good luck.

the LEDs for changing just the needles is 15 bucks at teamcelica.com. is that "not cheap"? if you want the screen red too then that will cost you another 25. and for the indiglo blue face overlay just buy one online. there are many styles

wrong! i was talking about the needle kit at import intelligence to make the needles glow red with blue leds behind the gauges. a set of needles at import intelligence is over $60.00.

so the only way to make my needles glow red on a blue gauge is with the import intelligence needle kit? so if i put the needles on a blue gauge lights, how is the needle gonna light up red? does it have a light inside? do i have to do any modifications for it? i wouldnt mind buying the needles.

you are buying two leds that go behind the needles
they are not new needles

here is a shot of mine from April 2003...

3d gauge overlays with RED leds...

Here are reverse indiglo gauges with RED leds from my car in January 2003...

Same reverse indiglo gauges with the SOTCK orange leds from October 2002...

The AC Autotechnick reverse indiglo gauge overlay from the two pictures above...

(AC Autotechnic had discontinued this product in early 2003... but there are other companies who sell simular product)

Stock gauges with just the RED leds...

dont say nothing till you know

the person mention something about getting indiglo gauges which means the leds behind will only matter for the needles


He didnt need that needle kit you were talking about

naw you can do what i said and buy the RED LED kit from teamcelica, put those in, and paint or clear your current stock needles if you are planning on getting overlays. if you want to keep the stock gauge face that wen you have the problem, might as well get overlays anyway. the got really cool ones. like in Isaac's first pic is an example of blue gauges with red needles and you DONT need that import intelligence kit for that

Thanks , that's the pic I'm looking for ...indiglo backround , red needles...

ilke ' em

Mine

so red LEDs installed on the gauge with that 3d gauge face will have the gauges light up blue and the needle red if i paint the needle red?
i thought light doesnt go through? wut are the sites that i can buy gauge faces other than rjautoworks.com?

^^check ebay ok the gauge face overlay is totally independant or the LEDs you put under it. Get red LEDs and paint your needles red. if you want your screen red too get the red LED screen kit if blue get the blue LED screen kit. the kits for the needles and screen are sold separately at teamcelica.com so you could mix and match
