I wouldn't remove them at all...

They will be calibrated wrong.

remove the lil screw and slide it back out. you have to flex the gauges around a bit.

Just take 'em off. You don't need to remove the needles.

whatever you do be careful and try not to take/break them off... i put gauge faces on the stupid way and removed the speedometer needle. there is no locating device on the stem that drives the needle, so i had to drive behind my friend in his subaru with my cluster all apart, and at 40mph he turned on his blinkers and i installed the needle on the post at 40. been working pretty well ever since :-)
