Removing Needles.

[iliketocrash]

How do i remove the needles in my gauge cluster w/out ruining anything? I tried doing a search in the forums and it has been talked about but i haven't been able to find anything that says how to do it. Any help please? :help

While doing a little more searchin i answered my own question. http://www.240sxfan.nismo.org/photo6.html This site had exactly what i was looking for. I haven't tried my gauge cluster out to make sure it works properly since i did it all but it seems like it should work. I say this because when you first open the cluster and you push the needle it makes a sweep and comes to the same resting position every time (this is w/ the little black needle stopper/post thingy removed) . When i put the needles back on they made the exact same sweep and only moved as far as they could previously. Its kind of hard to explain but that's the best i can do.

wow... and no one cares.

The author of the article might. And apparently, no one cares about your needles either.

you're a joke.:rolleyes

[i2ice4m3]

heh.. anyway do your needles work correctly? And did you replace them with the indiglo needles or something?

[iliketocrash]

Yes they work. I took 'em off, scraped off the white paint, and tried to do something original w/ 'em. But its not like indiglo.

I tried removing them and repainting them on my 95, and now they dont work. did you have to calibrate them any?
