check the archive, " instrument cluster trick "
. Did it two days ago and posted a thread and it was archived. You will like the trick. In and out in less than an hour.

My bad, read it too fast. Take a flat head screwdriver and slide under the bottom betweeen the face and the base of the needle and pry up. Should slide right out. Seems like you are going to break it but there is nothing holding them in.

What gauges are you putting on ?

Also a fork seems to work well for needle removal. Works for me at least.
