Did you do the recalibration yourself? If so how'd you do it and if not where and how much did it cost to do? I only ask cause I REALLY REALLY want to do this but taking the needles off seems pretty scary from what i've heard.

I want to thank "Mr Potato" BBQ for his support on the white guage swap....
I just did it this morning and you just have to be careful with those needles...
If you have a PFC Commander, its easy to recalibrate the guages...I have some pics of the job if anyone is interested...
Thanks Potato

Rotary93 I'd be very interested to see how you did it. Could you send the pictures to tsumi@stilldream.com or post them somewhere? Thanks =)

Hey there,
For those that have done the gauge face thing - is it possible to remove the needle and place it back on w/o having to recalibrate?
I was thinking of first removing the needle rests, set the gauge cluster up right, remove the needles when they are bottom dead center, change the faces, then carefully slip the nedle on at dead bottom center. Should be the same as before, right?
Thanks!
