i am trying to get the needles in my cluster to glow a diff color to the gauges and to do this i need to wire up some more LEDs. can some one tell me what wire on the left plug (i think its left) supply electricity to the globes?

Cheers.

That would be messy,
Whilst you have the cluster open, you can simply trace the original blobes power supply.

The hole the globes attach too, have 2 blade like contacts on either side, one supplying +ve the other -ve.

You shouldn't have a issue following them.

and also, supposedly you can change the colour of the needles themselves by scraping the white/orange off and putting on a semi transparent colour of your choice. (think nail polish)

i havent done it myself, but i plan to soon
