I had some off eBay, but they lit up real bad. These came from some weird Polish website that took me like 2 days to translate. I'll try find it for you, but I think it's long gone.

Understood English, and replied well enough for you to understand. They ended up costing me 80zł - $25 Shipped! Alot better than the ones on ebay.
You have to choose what colour numbers you want to light up though, so once you choose it, you can't change the colour really.
I'm using Spree's leds, plus a led strip to give it a bit more lighting.

Fioletowy is their word, but im sure if you wrote Purple, they would understand.

Timmy, how do you get the gauges under the needles? Do you take the needles off? If so how?
Yeah i took the needles off. I just used a kitchen knife, and applied an even amount of force around the needle, and it just slipped off.
A Tip though, start your car, and slip your needles over the little stoppers at the 0km mark, and note where they go.
That way when you put the new dials in, just start your car, and slip the needles on at them marks. But you will probably have to have a play around with it and a GPS or similar to try get it back exactly.

Yeah I made the mistake of taking them off without marking them or anything -_-
But other than that they turned out amazingly, only problem is they but an oil symbol instead of cruise control and fog lights instead of seatbelt.
How did you your red needles? I just painted mine, but they didn't turn out too well.

I just colored mine in with a Sharpie. All sides and left the bottom I think. I used orange too.
Strange about the oil/seatbelt icons. Maybe you needed a different version. I don't have fog lights or cruise control

Doesn't really worry me, I know what it means. Maybe oh well, its only the corner pieces that are out.
Oh and for some reason, I know its out but when I accelerate the drop back down the revs needle sticks, I dunno I'm going to take it to a workshop and see what they can do. Its funny though I got purple film thingy but cause I still have the old yellow bulbs its bright pink hahaha

Yeah I changed to white LEDs. When I put the dials in I sprayed it with some strap adhesive, as mine were sticking too. My speedo one still does sometimes on cold morning but yeah, glue them on!!
sorry for crappy pics
