Moley What I meant is pull off your needles fit the dials then put your original ones back on :Fish::Fish:
if its possible then yeah makes sense, but mine seemed quite difficult to remove so i left mine on and slid the dials over the needles, but its still easy enough to do which ever way is chosen

Dark Samurai dont know mate, sounds stupid but lexus may still do them, then ebay may have some, plus scratching the red bit off means the needle goes white? therefore making it look modern which i like.
yes they may still be purchasable from sellers, but if you havent preplanned on scratchin the needles and brought replacements before hand you have to put it back together and wait for new needles and look at the naf needles whilst waiting for delivery for new ones. also not everyone likes white needles! so just take time and you'll get the perfect results that you cars deserves

And you don't want to remove the red surface. The bottom of the needle has a red/orange coating and the top has a white coating. best to leave them as is.
You need to be very carefull when fitting the dials as you DONT want to scratch the needles. If you follow the instructions then you should be ok, if people are worried then wait for me to attend a meet and i can fit them. There is no rush in buying these dials, they are available indefinately.
