    so lets just say i do the white with the blue needles. since the blue is so dark it pretty much would fade when trying to dimmer down the white??


    White is bright at night...u can always use your dimmer switch to make it less bright :p[/QUOTE]

    Whatever you see right now (stock) when dimming the the lights is gonna look n do exactly the same when u swapped them to any color :thumbsup: so if ur stock needles look darker than ur background then it's gonna be the same when u do the swap :p

    UPDATE Thanks to AsianAnts & Rashnu, I have checked n confirm that on the 2010+ Tacomas you can intact change out the clock color. Those trucks come with new clocks that require 3 of the same LEDs like that ones that come on the clusters :woot:

    How did you do the green on "Bobby15:
    Green with white needles"? Is the redline blacked out on the RPM gauge or does it use red LEDs normally?

    I honestly never noticed the dark part on the redline b4 lol...normally it uses the background light to light up.

    Lol...like I said, good luck my friend. They're small LEDs and they're on there tight so be careful not to burn the pad. N make sure u put them on right becuz the polarity has to go a certain way remember
