    Default Speedo needles

    Just a quick question about the speedo needles.. I changed the globes to blue led's and scrathed the paint off the backs of the gauges and the blue works great but cant see the stock vn needles.. How do I make them more brighter to seem them in the dark like the numbers? Do I paint them white, sand the orange off the back? Any ideas would be super..

    try different colours of nail polish?
    im sure you can find a female in your family that wouldnt mind you borrowing it... (just make sure to tell them why)
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that
