        I painted mine red a while back, and have had no problems with illumination, in fact, e30 m3's came with red needles.

            Yea, red does look great. I had mine that way on my old cluster, and I need to get around to painting my current needles red. Some day..

                  hey ryan

                  whats different about your euro cluster??
                  is it just in metric units?
                  because us canadians have the same thing :)
