Installed white face gauges, question now
I installed some white face gauges, and I may have got the little needles mixed up before reinstalling them back on the cluster. My oil pressure gauge doesn't seem to be working the same as it was before the install, any ideas if the little needles are supposed to go on certain gauges?
They do have numbers on the back side, like 4, 5, etc, any help would be awesome!!! Thanks!

obvious longer ones in rpm and mileage, they are very sensitive, take the plastic cover off, start your car and place them where they should be, when you turn it off they will fall back down and rest on the black pegs, w/o removing the clar plastic cover they will fall to much and not read properly

I believe on the smaller ones you have to put them back in the exact spot you took them off. ie If the temp one was at 210 you need to put it back on at 210. Brynnda's idea should work as long as you know where they should be when you start the car.

I will search for some diagram of the needles and if they are numbered, seems lame enough to be a cause
And how do you recalibrate a cluster? HP Tuners? I wold love to do this as it would make my life much easier
