Since we're on the topic of changing gauge backround's, I have a stupid question. The needle's, rpm, mph, temp and fuel, How do those come off? do they slid off? Im just wondering cause I had a bad experience with a previous car that I had, the **** snapped off.

iused the two spoon method one either side of the needle center and gently prise up equally and if you take the needle stop out first your needle srings back mark where it stop and replace in same position pull forward and replace stop it worked for me anyway

I've got the ones with the black faces from procarparts, can see pics here in this thread.

I didn't remove the needles, the faces just slide overtop of the existing needles, and I used thin double sided tape (like carpet tape) to hold them down to the old gauges. Took about an hour from start to finish including wiring.
