I just put in indiglos in my '97 Camry and I was wondering if there was an easy way to make my needles glow red or orange, or a color other than green :smile:. I've read about E/L paint, but has anyone tried it? Do the needles still glow?

Yes, there is an easier way. I don't know about your needle, but i'm assuming it's white. All you have to do is change the color filter where the light from the bulb enters the needle to you desired colour.

If that fails, it still looks good painted and unlighted- like how there are on old getto Mercedes.

Thanks... also, is it normal for there to be a very faint buzzing sound that changes tone with different colors?
