Default need help buying new cluster needles for 08 scion tc

Hi I live in nor*cal and I'm looking for a set of cluster needles for the tc.please if anyone has any extra that's wants to sell them would be gladly appriciated.my old ones got painted by meng motorsports aka alan and he did a horrible job scraping them I would not recomend him for led cluster swaps or hvac it just didn't match but anyways he scraped them unevenly leaving them with diffrent shades of white and look bubbly. Any help is appriciated thanks all.

Where at in Norcal do you live? I can redo them for you if youd like. If not, try the dealership or a junkyard. Not sure if they sell the gauge needles alone at the dealership.

If their just rough looking they can be redone.

They need to be scraped clean and even.
Then dabbed on a sponge with paint on it to get a no bubble/streak glow from them.

Here, let me break it down for you so you can understand in kindergarten terms. I'm a local tC owner in Hayward aka my place of residence and I'm a grad student at CSU East Bay. I did a gauge swap for a buddy of mine, and for my payment he gave me 50 bucks plus an EXTRA gauge cluster he had from his first totalled tC. This extra gauge cluster came with EXTRA NEEDLES. From which im not mistaken, you came on this board asking for extra needles or where to get them correct??

Not sure what or where you were trying to get at by me being "associated with meng motorsports." Because there is NOWHERE in any of these posts, nor in ANY of my posts i have ever made on this forum to claim an association with meng. I was simply trying to be a good dude and sell you some extra needles i had layin around.

But this is just another classic case of ignorance and unintelligence at its finest. You still have F'ed up needles when you could have had some brand new ones had you not had your head in your @ss and assumed i worked with Meng. Jokes on you!

I'm suprised that you weren't happy with Meng's work... I haven't see his work, but I do see that he do them often...
