Well its all my fault, cant blame speedhut (the gauges look bitchin). I rushed things and got frustrated, so now my water temp gauge reads 3/4 hot instead of 1/2 or 1/4 hot. Is there a specific way to set these gauges so they are acurate?

my oil pressure is reading low as well and it wasnt before i ripped the needles off. Any advice/info would be great :)

Why does everyone take of the needles to install these gauges. If the new gauges aren't stiff, you can bend them slightly and slide them over the needle. This way you are sure not to break a needle and you gauge accuracy will be the same.

well on the tach and speedo you HAVE to take them off, because the needles base is wider then the hole on the faces.

But i just overall fucked up the cluster, time to get a new one i think :(
