NTMD8R_SS Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Just wondering if anyone is running Escalade needles whit the stock cluster? Ive searched but the ones that i found had the US speedo background. If you do post a pic in daylight and one at night if possible, i just want to get an idea, but mine should get here next week along whit the Escalade gauge bezel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second one is Escalade overlay and envoy needles. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTMD8R_SS Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Yeah i was actually looking at some of your threads before i made the thread. I just want to see the contrast from the needles to the white background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTMD8R_SS Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Got the stylintrucks magazine today and was looking tru it and i found what i was looking for, holy crap $160! Good thing for ebay i got the bezel and needles for 95shipped. I got the regular silver one not the platnium edition bezel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NTMD8R_SS Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) I'll make my final decision once they get here, but i think they'll blend in too much. I may end up getting red needles and selling theses. Can you get some close up daylight pics of your envoy needles? are they like a true red color?

silverado777 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Ya they are true red. I don't have any lights behind them except for the blue in the gauge cluster. I'll take a pic once I get out of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverado777 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 I love my red needles. To me the escalade needles were too bland. Especially at night with the blue LED's. It was just too much blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTMD8R_SS Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Yeah i went ahead and made an offer hopefully he accepts or couteroffers then ill buy them, then sell the set i dont use. I think the red will really pop against the white background, plus it'd compliment the Earnhardt logo on the headrests.

silverado777 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Sweet! Post pics when you get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTMD8R_SS Posted March 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) Well they came in today, i dont think they look red just a deeper tone of orange kinda neon orange just darker but a hint of red depending on the angle you look at them and lighting. This is what i want, deep deep red. I looked at usspeedo.com and their red ones look to be the same as the envoy ones, anyone else make needles? Oh and attached below is just a mock up i made whit some paper and the bezel and needle to get an idea lol.
