I need to find out why my CEL doesn't work. So I need help taking the instrument cluster apart and checking the LED. Opening the cluster itself doesn't look like a tough job, but what do I do next? How can I remove the needles without doing any damage? And, more importantly, how do I re-install...

I could've sworn I saw references a while back to an option via Vag Com to have the instrument cluster needles (speedometer, tach, fuel and coolant temp) stay lit even when all other lights are off. Does anyone know about this? I can't find anything via search.

I have changed the faces on my instrument cluster, after installation I took the car for a drive to compare speedo readout with climatronic code 16 digital speed. I seem to be out by quite a bit. When I'm doing 60km/h on the dial climatronic is showing 43km/h. I did run instrument cluster test...
