Default How to replace cluster needles "Vid"

i was just browsing around youtube and happened to stumble upon this vid. i know it's not hard to do this but i thought it was pretty cool to find a video about this on youtube..around a little past halfway of the video i believe he is talking about Lextech as well.

Curious to know if someone has changed out the RPM needle before by themselves? That's the only one giving me an issue...for now
