thanks,

sorry i cant really help, but when i tried to pull the needle off it broke the little circle thing. i think you have to just pull it hard and evenly. good luck. for some reason mine was stuck on harder than the other ones

 

yeah, the little circle in the middle of mine is starting to split too. that's why i stopped pulling.

so i just need to pull harder then huh?

thanks,
Jesse

 

ok, i got the needle off. i just need to test it out. I'll let you know how it goes.

I ended up using a screwdriver to pry it off. That's what I originally wanted to do, but didn't want to break anything, which I didn't.

Thanks everybody,
Jesse

losing the calibration isn't that much of a loss acording to what Vader told me. He basically that my speedo is fried, so having it read halfway decent for a while is better than not reading good at all.

What other problems are you saying that I will have with losing some calibration?

Thanks,
Jesse

firebretha, now that you got an exhaust system, you are gonna have to change you sig

 

The way I do it is to unscrew the 2 little screws holding the speedo face, and then pulling up on the face itself to apply even pressure to the center of the needle. Always comes off easy for me.
