    di ko alam kung pu-pwede yan... but why not change the entire assembly itself? mura lang naman yan...and may mga surplus na available.

    no idea bro.... but the reason why i suggested to replace the whole assembly is because, the needle is too sensitive para palitan. pag nawala sa alignment yan, definitely, it will affect the way it works, or probably will not work at all.

    Was able to drive a Civic esi with this kind of accessory.

    Advice ko sa yo bro wag nalang. Aside from the fact na nakakaduling and very distracting baka masira or mag-malfunction pa especially the important gauges like the fuel and engine temp.

    Ang sakit sa mata niyan. Lalo na kung madilim sa labas ng sasakyan (e.g. provincial roads).

    Hindi na din ata gagana yung gauge dimmer/rheostat mo after.

    talagang hindi gagana because it has its own pre-set na wattage/power

    That's the drawback with reverse indiglo gauges. Hindi masyado makita yung needles at night

    Yung barkada ko, ginawa nya he spray-painted the needles with a bright & luminous color (red). Ganda! Yun nga lang, after a year or so, hindi na sya ganun ka-luminous

    pagkakaalam ko sa VTI walang illuminated needles na gay sa amber lit guage(JDM) ng esi. Palit ka ng aftermarket guage panels baka meron as posted pero mahal yun. Try painting the needles red nalang baka makita mo pa din pag gabi pero be cautious of touching the needles kasi sensitive yun...
