found some white dials for cheap on ebay so was thinking of getting a set. however would it be possible to change the needles to orange so i can see them against the white backgroung? or just paint them?

The smaller needles can be removed but the larger ones cant so you would need to paint them Orange.
I painted mine Orange, have a look in my garage.
