Default sticking gauge cluster....HELP

My SS has white aftermarket glow gauges in it....I bought it like this...well today after a few WOT pulls, The needle got stuck and stayed there....I would tap the glass, and it would drop slowly untill i stopped taping it....when I came to a stop, it fell back down to 0mph....started going again and it would start getting stuck...how can I fix this??

Default

well... mine is the same way, but i put mine in lol... but mine only sticks when it is cold outside and the heater hasn't started warming my interior up lol... but i know my problem is that the overlay isn't the perfectly right size and kinda bubbles out in a couple spots instead of laying flat... and the only fix ive heard of for this is taking it all apart and taking the overlay off and laying a bead of loctite on the backside of the overlay, but just around the parts that you can't see the electronics deal built in the overlay... its not hard to take out though, just be careful of putting the needles back on...
