Anyone has an idea where I could find blue or white needles for 52mm gauges? I want to replace my AEM analog red ones so they match with the dash...

I wouldn't mind having to buy "donor" gauges but all the cheap ones have red needles...

I don't know if this will help you but a few years ago I found a kit that included a sort of fluorescent paint that you use to paint the needles and then a sort of black light that you used to replace the stock bulb and that made the needles light up in the color you wanted. I remember they matched well. I used it on a stock 93 civic instrument cluster to have the stock needles match my gauges red needles. I don't know if it will help you any but there it is...

Thanks but I found a solution for this. The gauge's needle in pictures looked like it was made of red plastic, but it is in fact transparent with paint on the bottom. All I had to do was scrape off the paint and change the leds.

Gauges are AEM analogs for anyone interested...

Could you post a pic of your final result?

just buy stack gauges. perfect match. uses an accurate gm map sensor as well.

Yes plan to do this once I wrap my gauge pod (I made a custom one to go under the climate control)

I wanted all my gauges to match. Since I have a AEM analog wideband, the stack wouldn't have worked (they are also more money and harder to find in canada). I changed the needles to blue anyway so I would have needed to do the same.
