For megane Ph1

I have one questin, how can I remove the orange plastic behind the dials?
Is it posible or I have to brake something?

Than we have to replace the orange with clear plexi and put a blue leds in it.

On some other forum one said:
You have to peel the dial sticker off, then there are two screws behind it that attach the acrylic to the dial!

If I brake something do I have to buy another dials?

the acrylic is hedl to the dials by screws but that means you have tro make up new faces.

btw best way to remove the needles is by using a fork

Chris tnx for all the replys.

I have in mind to change the dial faces.

I must find some time and start with this project.
