The best thing to do when you are going to remove the needles... drive around till the car gets warm. Then, stop, with the engine running and in park, and write down the exact positon of the tach, temp, and fuel. I made little diagrams of the gauges so I wouldn't forget. Remember to put everything back on again when the car is warm, running, and ideling. For the speedometer... don't drive slowly in a parking lot and try to guess. It doesn't work. The best thing to do is pulg in the gauge cluter w/o the lexan cover, and have one of your friends drive ahead of you. Talk to him on your cell phone or a radio, and have him get up to 60mph, and set his cruise control. Then match his speed and set your cruise control. After you are all set, stick the needle on at 60. It make take a few attemps, but once you get it, the car will be perfectly accurate. Good luck.
