Nawww, those are the SMT LED's used for the circuit board. not-so-rednwhitecooper said he had to remove the gels or something like that for the climate control, apparently it's different.
Well, I went back and changed my needles, painted them and then realized that you also have to change the leds under it. I only have 3 whites left so I did the tach, going to do the speedo this week once the others I ordered get here! Also changed the diffuser to a white sheet of paper and it's MUCH brighter! Thanks for that tip!

New Tach with Needles!
