    The morphing needle is just using one coloured LED on one side and a second colour on the other side. I asked about how it was done when I got Greg (Phreddy) from ASR to do it for me. So instead of putting one colour all the way around, swap to a different colour on the opposite side

    I think having a shift light and a morphing needle in the same cluster is abit over the top, unless the shift light is hidden somewhere else.
