the needles on a 99 sport gauge

[bigwayne3000]

ok i want to update my gauges. i found these: http://www.autoaccessorystore.com/home_n.asp?dir=detail&id=729 but they only work if the needles are lexan based needles. does anyone know if the needles in a 99 sport are lexan based? also anyone have any suggestions for updating the cluster gauge?

well as helpful as that was.... idk, the site for the needles say the needles have to be lexan in order ot be used. has nayone installed these? the site doesnt have a match function so i cant find out of these will work or not.

instead of buying that, why don't you put l.e.d.'s in the stock cluster?

idk never really thought about it. i just thought those gauges looked awesome.

...Lexan is a trademark name for polycarbonate..

..It is used in signage and bullet proof glass, as well as guage needles...

...:scratch:...Maybe you can tell us or contact the seller, he may know...

...From the link you posted...

.."Lexan needles are needles that glow at night from your lights behind the gauges. Non-lexan needles do not glow at night."

...Do your needles already glow something like these???
