Guage Needle Removal

[Sudesh]

Just wondering has anyone done this and whats the best method? I'm upgrading my speedo guage to a dual read out [MPH/KPH] so need to remove the needle to fit the new face as I've been speaking to a company that can make me an OEM style face in the proper polycarbonate material same as OEM [not a cr*p stiker] The can also make my display showing a top speed of 200mph!!

Sudesh,

There are mixed views around the sensitivity of the needles. Most will advise you NOT to remove them. I have the OEM style NSX-R overlays and was able to position them without needle removal.

Have your supplier make the centre bore hole slightly oversized to OEM and you will be able to fit them without risk of damage to the cluster (which will not be cheap to replace)

HTH, Paul
