    Cool 12-19-2010
    Ok so i found this website where its a kit to make your needles on your gauge cluster light up!!! its looks really cool but it says the needles need to be made of LEXAN and the only way to tell is if the look on the side of the needle and if its clear "see though" then its made of lexan DOES ANYONE KNOW IF PONTIAC GRAND PRIX'S HAVE THESE NEEDLES?!?!?!?!?

    My Grand Prix is a 07

    I don't know for sure but I bet if the Grand Am needles are made of Lexan so are the Grand Prix needles. They are probably the very same needles. That does look pretty cool.

    Our needles have that orange colour on them.. I would bet if you took them off and could get rid of it, this would work. but then you have to recalibrate them.

    the coloring on the needles can be taken off. you can then shine whatever color LED you want through it.
