I've changed mine over the years, but you've got to be careful though. Those clock are pretty delicate being as they're 20+ years old.

First time I changed them:


2nd time I changed them:



In the end the rev counter packed up in them so I bought a set off ebay that were like this:


And turned them back in to this:


Full circle!

I made them myself, it pretty easy to take the cluster apart. And if you're any good on Photoshop or something, you can just print off sme covers and stick the over the top of your original dials. I took the needles off and made some new faces on my laser cutter at work, but I wouldn't recommend this as it's hard to get the needles back on in the right place. I can email you some templates if you want?
