those are BS ... they requre you to remove the needles and place a filament ring at the base.

rule #1 when modding your gauges ... never touch the needles.

the needles will no longer function when removed. I dont know why this is, because on other cars, people can take them off, and put them back on fine.

but dont do it.

I took my needles off to do a gauge face swap. I could never get the needle to work right again. I ended up buying a new cluster.
