Default Speedo Needles Wont Light Up

So I got this car, we can call it a 1995 Accord. I like to call her Shakira, but lets face it its so beat up I should call it Sarah Jessica Parker, all dented and stuff, but still beautiful.

Anyways, back on topic. The dash and gauge lights all work fine, except for all the needles. I suppose I always assumed that the needles and the gauge lights were all connected with the same bulbs, but I guess I am mistaken. This is not a problem unless I am driving at night, and then I cant see the speedo needle. Anyone ever had this problem?

I don't think the original poster is active on this forum anymore.

Is your car also a 1995 or similar year? If so, there is a bulb in back of the speedometer gauge. You have to remove the instrument cluster to replace it.

Sorry but if the "over head" bulbs in the cluster go out.....the needles are almost impossible to see.
