Can the speedo gauge's face be easily removed ? I have a custom tan colored face that needs to go into a speedo with the traditional black face. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The needle is the hard part. Getting it off without messing it up is a risky endeavor. I would just send it to Hollywood Speedo or Paloalto. There may be people here that can do it, too. Some do custom gauges. I never had luck when I was doing the custom gauge thing.

Some pop off easy, others can be a super PITA. Is this new face a vinyl overlay?

The new face was installed / painted by NHS several years ago. I'll send to them; there is a calibration issue as well.
