    Ok I'm putting the 04+ needles in my 01 Bonneville. I ordered 2 sets from a guy on fb. The issue I'm having is I got 1 short shaft and a long shaft tach, and I got 3 short shaft for the and 1 long shaft for the others. I need the long shaft small needles. Where do I get these long shaft small needles? Thanks to anyone who helps.

    Have you checked a nearby junk yard?

    Because they're not all the same size






    Maybe you need to grab one more set. Then piece together the sizes that you need.

    Ooooh my bad. If I make it out to the JY Saturday I'll check if the Aztec they had is still there and I'll grab em for you. No promises though.
