hey, i dont really wanna start a whole new thread for one lil quick question, i was just wondering, and maybe insane might like to know also. If we "accidently" break the needles, where do you think we can get some new ones? and fyi, i dont think i have any junkyards around here.

No i just stole the pic from it. J/K. Yeah i did but it is kinda vaige. Also, looking at mine it looks like there is something behind all of it that is going to brake if i just pop it out. I tried just prying up on the bottom of the shroud but it doesnt seem to want to come off and i don't want to break anything. Does prying the edge of the shround around the needle pop it all loose?

Unscrewed the little screws and was seeing if i could pull plastic and all off and they flew through the air. Wanderin are you sure this isnt going to throw the reading?

Figured it out. The RPM one was a bitch and it is the one i started with so i couldnt figure it out. Thanks. Also i have 2 empty bulb spaces, one in the right turn light area and one along the bottom is this normal or have they ratteled loose and fallen in the dash?

Taking off the needles that way didn't throw off my needles at all, as long as the base part stays on.

As for the missing bulb holes, I will have to look at mine again, as I think I had a few slots unfilled. I know I don't have ABS or traction control, so the bulbs in those slots are missing.
