You didn't remove the needles did you? With my Macawen's the needles did not have to be removed. Check the needles to make sure they are not in a bind or hung up on something from behind. Shouldn't need any recalibration, nothing changed but the background.

Unless something is keeping from moving freely, I dunno. I worried about that with mine, but had no problems. Hopefully someone else can come up with something.

check to see if the overlay is pressin up against the needles. i had that problem too. it would mess up the needles at a certain point. as for the other needles, fill up the gas tank all the way. the rest will be guess work. put the needles where they would be at idle.

I thought you didnt have to remove none of the needles on the camaro gauges???? I thought they went right on without having to remove themat all?

you might have pushed the needles back in too far/tight so they hit the gauge face try pulling them out just a little bit

i have the McEwens gauges on my car. never had to remove any needles at all. Did you make sure to firmly press the overlay down so that it is not bowing up?

speed limit most places is 40mph anyways so STOP BREAKING THE LAW, *******!

jk, seriously though try loosening the needles or removing / reinstalling them and see if that helps?

if you are having trouble thuogh puttin a sticker on though you might wanna take it to a shop.
