Talking Gauge Face Install

Anybody have a write up for installing gauge faces on their 240? This girl gave me reverse indiglos for my 96 and I want to know if anyone's installed them...

Could use anyone's help ASAP cause I want to show her that I put them on when I drive her around (ahem) yeah....

Have you searched? I've seen this topic here a few times.
You'll need to take off the plastic around the steering wheel, then the gauges. there are screws, I couldn't tell you exactly where but if you look it's not that hard. Make sure to disconnect the battery first so the airbags don't go off and hurt you, lol. Once you get the gauges out, you should be able to take off the needles, slide it in and put the needles back on. It's not a hard process. Someone else might be able to get your better directions, but thats a good start.
