Question gauge needles...

I have reverse indiglo gauges installed. But at night I can barely see my needles. Is there anyway I can get them to glow? Or does anyone have any good ideas for them to stand out at night? The needles are white.

paint them. in an arts and crafts store they should sell floresant paint, that would reflect off the light. might look cool.

I am going to do it, but im not sure if the guage faces will light up as well. Would make sense since they us uv lights. but who knows.

I had the same problem with barely able to see the needles at night after I installed some reverse glow gauges, so I installed the ice blue needles (bought from that same site)...looks really nice

don't you have overhead lights in your dash bezel? replace those, I found that a light coating of high temp paint will give the bulb a color without burning off or discoloring....has to be a very light, even, coat though (tricky took me a couple of tries) otherwise not enough light will get through.
