fishman Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 the only hard one to do is the speedo, becuase you have to get it accurate.... with the others just remember where they were before you took them off, i.e remember your idle, take the rev counter off and then put the new one back on, and then push the needle onto the dial were the old one was for example 800rpm. To get the speedo accurate you will need a satnav or speed camera detector so you know your speed, and whilst your driving along, like before push the needle on into place. Hope this helps!

Im a wuss. also, easier if you have cruise control.... or you can get a mate to drive at a certain speed infront of you, like 30mph, and then do it...... From what ive seen they do look alot better tho... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 If they're the Speedhut bendy EL Glo type, then they should just bend over the needles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
