White Face Gauge Install Questions

stangsrule · 03-23-2001, 06:16 PM

I have the MAC white face gauge kit and am in the middle of doing the install but can't seem to get the speedo needle off... All the others came off fine but the speedo one does not want to budge. Am I missing something? I have pried on it pretty hard and am afraid of breaking it but it is the last thing I need to take off to finsih the job. Any suggestions welcome...

I had the exact same problem. The speedo needle took everything I had along with a couple screwdrivers. Keep your eyes out of the way

I sell the gauges so I can give you a few pointers

First try the tool that came with the kit, if that does not work, use a fork. I know it sounds weird, but it will work

Thanks for the replys, I finally got it but was afraid I was going to break something in the process. They look awsome!
