Could someone please explain to me what to do to install this new face? I've got the dash off and the overlays...how do the needles come off and are there any little tips that will make this as smooth as possible?

Best tool i've seen is a plastic ball mark repair tool (golf). They are on by a press fit, slide it under the center point and they will pop off. Be sure and remember where the needles were pointing. When you press them back on they need to go back in the same position.

my gauges came with a little divot tool like you use for golf. you should be able to just slide it under the base of the gauge and pry up and pop it off
also, when putting your new face on... make sure you get it seated and stuck on the cluster well or your needles will not move smoothly.

Put a small ring of super glug around the needle holes under the overlay or you'll get fuzzy little halos of light when the lights are on.
