HELP- bent needle

[longhornM6]

I was preparing my gauge cluster for rings and taping off to paint the needles red when I realized I had accidently bent the needle. I didnt know how delicate they are.

Does anyone have a needle I can buy? - This was the Tach needle.

Also, any hints for removing the needle without damaging the needle itself?

Thanks-

Randall

On the backside of the needle, where it meets the black thingamabog at the center of the tach, you will see a small release wire. Its hard to see unless you get the cluster under bright light and look closely at the thick end of the needle at the gauge center. Lightly manuever the wire connecter and the needle with pop out.
