Color changing needles, Has been done, but I dig it :)

Sorry the files are HUGE, but it is sweet when they change. They turn bright white to RED. All needles change. Looks hot

I have many more designs in mind for the color change, and have done a few before but this was the first I took a vid of. Again sorry about the file size, I do not have software to edit them...

Price for a basic White needle - What color you choose runs +$35.00 over the price of a normal swap.

I can also do multi colors such as blue to red or whatever.

As always PM for info price as certain options will drive up the cost on the color change as white leds have to back them. And yes it is possible for me to do twotone setups or solid colors with color changing needles as well.

Only downsides to color changing needles is you cannot see the change in the daytime. It is a nighttime thing only. And white needles are not super easy to see in the daytime.

Not to hard really, just have to use filters under the needles and back them with white leds. Just takes time and patience.
