I wasn't fully impressed with these needles so I'm selling them. 6LE doesn't sell these anymore BTW.

They look great if that's what you're going for. I didn't feel like they lit up enough so I've modified them with foil under the black center to reflect light better which has helped some. The other issue is the OEM tach and speedo are weighted where these weren't. I modified these needles and placed the weighted part into them. The reason is, over bumpy roads, those 2 longer needles would bounce slightly over the bumps, then go back to being normal. The modification helped a bit, but I'm a perfectionist.

Blue LEDs probably don't help my cause. The gauges are 6LE and it seems like the light bleeds through sort of, therefore making the blue needles harder to see. Photos do a horrible job of showing how it truly looks. They look better in person than this picture. I'm sure if you had white LEDs, it would look much better.
