    There is a one that will fit. They are the neo-wedge type. And the LEDs will not work. They are not a 360 degree type. So not enough light will make it to all sections.

    Doing the LED mod in my 2009. Got the dash out and I'm stuck on how to get the needles removed. It seems like they should just slide on and off but I gave each of them a very healthy tug and they ain't going anywhere. I'm afraid I'll damage something if I tug on these any harder than I have already. What's the secret to getting these indicator needles off so I can get at the circuit board where the LEDs get soldered on.

    what i did was stuck a very small flat head like the smallest one they make under the black round base of the needle. I stuck the flat head threw all the way until it comes out the other side and then i lifted the flat head up making sure you lift it parrallel to the cluster so the flat head isnt on an angle as you lift it. Just be careful to not have the needle bend on the cluster.
