Can I install white needles... and removing dial rings!

Hi two things here...

1) I want white needles... I believe some other Clio models have these as standard? If so can I use them on my 182? Otherwise I'll have to spray what I've got I guess.

2) I want to remove the dial rings for spraying, it seems they just have to be forced off. Is there a recommended way to do this? I punched two through using a golf tee lol and it went okay but kinda took some of the black plastic off with it, I don't wanna snap anything. How do you secure it back in place afterwards, just super glue?

dont know about the dial needles. but for the dial surounds, get a stanly blade ( or knife ) and cut the melted plastic fro around the pegs, and leaver the rings off gentally. refitting them is easy, push it back in and a dab of super glue to hold them :)

Would be good to see if this can be done! I wanna do a cheeky VW style speedo, with red needles and blue back lights.

i bought a set of clocks to trial changing the leds on and that came with white needles (they were off an auto)

but i only fitted them to a 1.6 but i doubt the dials are any different apart from span
