Alright Im getting these gauges for my civic http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/96-97...51347621QQrdZ1

Right now I my needles look like this guys here http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...21428599960587 , I want to have my needles that glow like on the newer civics & accords. Is this possible?

 

nope not posible

if you pull the needles off youll have to buy a new gauge cluster!!!!!!!

they either SNAP or thiers no way to recalibrate it!

trust me! and alot of other forum members!!!!!!! DONT PULL THE NEEDLES!!!!!!!


tho i dont see those needles glowing in that video you posted.....
looks like stock needles to me.......

only thing you can do to improve your needles is to paint them where thier at!!!!!

tape up the whole clusters face and just leave the needles open to paint them... thats your only option!

 

So what all am I going to have to do to get the new gauges im getting for it? How do I place the things on without removing my needles?

 

They slip over the stock gauges, u can just slide the needles through the holes.

 

yep............
what you do is remove the little philips screws outta the stock gaces LEAVE THEM THIER just remove the screws... slide the covers over the needles and simply put the screws back in over the covers and wire em up. realy simple!

 

When I wire them up what are they going to be hooking into, I havant got them yet so Im not sure of the instructions. Will the connect with my dash already to where I can controll the brightnes of them with the switch that already controlls the lights or will I need to rig my own switch up because Im afraid if its just one setting it might be too bright on those late nights.

 

Well I wired mine into my headlight fuse so they come on when my headlights do. They probably come with a switch to control brightness.
