I bought some plasma glow dials off eBay and the kit was amazing and a breeze to fit, with them being called plasma dials I removed all the bulbs out of the dash and it looks amazing. I had fitted these a while back but now with the early nights have rolled in its a pain to see my rev and speedo needles.

So my question is this, does anybody know of a needle kit that that will fit the classic mini so the needles glow or light up when I put the lights on, just like in modern cars when there lights are on
Thanks
