Question about needles in gauge cluster

ya i did it

you pop em off and the paint is only on the back of the needle. You can take the needle off of the middle pieces too...they carefully snap off.

then i sanded the old paint off as it appears they are painted orange, then white over that. paint remover may be a better choice, but wouldnt want to harm the plastic.

then use some Testors model paint and paint the back surface again...this will still allow light to light up the needles and the color on the back will show! Testors actually sells a flourescent orange that looks pretty stock..
