Intelliglo Needles

Quick question. Will the blue intelliglo needles for the 95-97 max work on a 98. i really want the blue ones but all i can find for the 98 are the red. so if it will work let me know.

no,
you would have to get a 95-96 gauge cluster and start from there. you are stuck with the red.

If you can get them from a Nissan dealer, you can get the clear needles off a 95-96 Maxima and replace your orange ones with these. I will work, but I just do not know if you can get the clear needles. Good luck.

I dont know about the 95-96 clusters, but I have blue on my 97. It had orange needles and I scratched the orange of the back and the needles are clear.

Re: Re: Intelliglo Needles

98 has orange needles.. not just orange on the back.. if you put blue needles you wont see them.. i have red ones from www.importintelligence.com and i hate them.. this is my second set and the LED's have gone bad twice.. sucks a lot to rip it all apart and I cant get my temp gauge to work.. not worth the trouble.

dont go to nissan with that.. they will charge you a HUGE fee to fix it, unless you know someone.. the gas, speedo, and RPM are easy to fix... I have yet to fix my temperature gauge, I have no idea how to get it to stay in the middle, it only goes way about the H.. i tried leaving the gauge uncovered and putting the needle at the midpoint after the car had warmed up, and when i ran it for a few it was fine, but then once i turned it on and off.. it went right back up..

i can help you with the other 3.. maybe not fuel, because that was your job to mark how much gas you had.. and then put it back..
