You don't have to remove the actual gauge to change it, just the needle. If i remember correctly on the smaller guages the dials are held in place by something sticky. :?:

I might get some silver ones and take a look...see what they look like fitted. How easy is it to fit the middle gauge facias.. the oil guage / petrol gauge have small studs holding them on.. do u have to undo those studs to fit the lockwoods? (The rev and speedo just unscrew so they ae easy by the looks of it) Thanks mate.I bet your five is already gleaming again by now! :lol: liking the sound of the new toy on its way...keep us posted ....sounds cool!
Could I use one of them pics in the header ??
