Are they cable or electric ones?

take the clocks apart and if you look at them theres a little thing locking them in position, if you hold that out of the way you can move each number to whatever you want

No, we couldn't get your grandmother to run, however, I told her there was a penny on the floor, and while she was bending down for it. She received a right good roggering dog style

Wouldn't it be more suitable to turn it back to whats on the car and not on the engine??

For future online MOT checking etc.

theres one on every barrel if you know what i mean, i think it was a yellow mechanism of some sort, if you have a look at it and try rolling them about you might be able to see what stops them rolling backwards, then just carefully pry it with a small screwdriver and roll back the numbers you need to
