3rd Generation Can I change my guage's needle color?

I'm going to order new leds for the guage cluster so I can change the color to white, but I'd like to be able to know that I could change the color of my needles before I ordered them. How would I go about doing this?

I believe the needles for the gen3 are orange? I have the gen4.5 with clear needles, and I just used a sharpie to make them red. I ended up hating the look, so I just used rubbing alcohol to get the ink off. Maybe you could try coloring it with different colors and see which one you like, or whichever works best with orange. If not, there was a site that sold colored needles at different sizes. You could try that, but it was a little pricey so I chose to color them myself.

would it be possible for me to just remove my needles and replace them with the clear needles from the gen 4.5?
