Just brought some new stick on faces for my clocks and have taken tacho apart. Whats the best way to remove the needle as it seems a tad stubborn to come off. I should imagine that being old and sunbleached that its pretty brittle.

Any place you can buy new needles? I have 1 broken and have bought new faces and cases, so would like needles to finish them off.

hi i broke my needle as well, so i bought a cheap clock from poundland, that had metal needles, i took them off filed them down and reshaped them. the original lc yellow needles, i made sure they were completly gone by slicing them off with a stanley knife, then sprayed my new needles the colour i wanted and stuck them on with glue. was pleased with the result, hope that helps. heres a pic.  |
