Do they fit? I want backlit needles, but as you know, FC ones are front/under lit, which imo, is UGLY.

Does anyone know if the FD needles fit the pin on the FC? I know the FC rpm-gauge is bigger than the speedo, but it will look better (especially when I am planning to make new faces, black with white, so I can get white needles, red numbers.

Also, does the S5 front and faces fit the S4 back so I get the S5 look but the cluster electrically stays the same?

Posted here and rx7club to maximize my chances of a proper answer :)

well the speedo increments are different between the s4 and s5. Additionally i think the rev counter is bigger on the s4. As for the needle, I\'m sure you could make it fit somehow but i think it\'d look weird. I\'d suggest making you\'re own, or finding a backlit needle thats roughly the same size as the FC one

have you checked?

Also, there must be some needles that fit the S4 cluster?
