Question Swapping ES gauge set for LX gauges.

Ok..Got a set of gauges from an ES, 2k vintage...Love the white faces.....The car had 6300 miles on it..The car I am working on has barely 3k...Can the odometer module be swapped as well?

Or can the white faces only be swapped? How difficult is it to remove and replace the gauge needles? What do I use to remove the needles?

Thanks all.....

I'll tell you right now, DO NOT try to remove the needles. They WILL break! If they do break, the whole cluster must be replaced. The needles have no part number, so for breaking a $4 part, you could be out close to $500. The Protege FAQ has a section devoted specially to this issue. Please check there for more information.

If you can't find it, leave a reply and I'll include the link.
