Well, I promised that I was going to get them in on a warm day... Finally got one the other day, and I forgot to post these...

I am very pleased with them, and they are not that hard to resize to fit our clusters. You will however need 2 sets out of 2 clusters. The tach needle is too small for anything, so you need 2 speedo needles and 4 from the temp and fuel gauges...

What do you think?

These are also the gauge needles found on the last generation Pontiac Grand Prix, which makes them more common than you'd think.
Picked up 2 clusters from ebay for cheap and will be doing this soon on my 96!

That is correct. The 2004-2008 grand prix also has them. They are slightly different than the aztek needles. The tach needle is about 1/8" longer and the stems on the needles are different lengths compared to the aztek.

I will be switching to a grand prix tach needle soon, as it is a better fit for a tahoe/yukon cluster than the aztek tach needle.:cheers:
