Needles look great Ben :afro:

I'm guessing they are mk4 needles? Did you just tap into the power supply for the leds that illuminate the dials? :cool:

Thank you, there actually from a mk5, and yes just glued a single, wide angle LED to the underside of the clockface and wired them to the connection blocks on the back of the PCB, the ones the Dial leds push into when you put the clocks back together.
If a few people wanna know how I'll put a how to in the mk3 section
