No clue... whatever the name of them were on that one site that dub had... see if its the same name and size and all... you probably need to get the leds first to figure out if its the same fitment...(bay amusments is the company) They were like .59 cents each.. so if u could find them cheaper than have at it... but idk if they have them or not.

I am just the opposite, I want orange neeldles on my Escalade cluster with the blue background. The needles off the stock cluster and the Escalade needles are not the same length and have different shape/color bases so I can't just use my stock needles. I am guessing if the razorblade trick works to make them clear, I could paint the backs of my Esky needles. I also dont like how the Odometer/Gear selector is that aqua green color so I was thinking of tring to cover it with some blue lens material like they use for show lighting. Has anyone tried this?
