Aye i fitted mine ok by instructions, used the two teaspoon method to pop needles off, but take the little plastic stopper out by hand carefully and let the rev and mileage needles drop, remember exactly where they sit as youll have to put them back on the exact way after putting white face on and before that little black needle stopper.

As for fuel and temp gauge, id advise you slice white dial in half and slide UNDER needles, as i knacked mine up and had to get another stock dial.
Also youll need to cut a rectangle out under fuel/temp needles for your handbreak and engine/ignition light.

When all done and dusted you might also want to cut white faces in a circle shape like stock to make sure bulbs illuminate all faces.

Read up on my build up just incase that helps
