hey, i just bought a 96 SE,...all the lights in the intstrument panels are broken, and thinkin of gettin reverse indiglo gauges when i fix all that, but i was wondering...do the needles light up , or do they just stay dark at nite like in some cars???? If so, are they real bright like in Volkswagens, or are they lame & i should just get led needles???

 

Needles are what the doctor sticks in you. Personally, i would keep the stock white SE guages and just replace the bulbs. It's a very very VERY nice stock display (when it works obviously). The pointers are red at night while the rest of the display is black with white numbers/letters. It's all very bright. I usually dim it way down and go stealth mode =)

 

The SE guages are white with black numbers ane markings... It lights up silver....

 

During the day you mean. I was talking about at night how the display looks.

 

what color bulbs are in there stock? If you change the bulb lets say hyper white, how does it change the look, just the hashes, letters, and numbers?
