If your are going to buy after market needles, or replacements, your are going to have to have them professionally installed. If you remove the needle from your tach or speedo the spring wont be able to stop at the default position where the needle hits that little black stopper. Therefore the gauges will become uncaliberated and wont read properly anymore. Never ever remove your needles. I have reverse indiglo gauges in my 92 civic, I colored my needles in red with a Mark's'Alot permanent marker, and it looks mint. It looks great. But whatever your do just dont pull the needles unless your planning on buying a whole new cluster.
