Help!

OK...so I finally got my car back with the indiglos.

But...the needles keep hitting the screws so it makes that big jump after it breaks past that point.

Thats not even my question. My speedometer isn't fluid either. It got stuck at 30 mph when I was stopped. And now its seems ok, but still doesn't seem as fluid as before. Can anyone tell me if your indiglos took a little while to get fluid after you installed your guages? Man...I'm just upset with this whole thing. I wish I had never tried to change them out in the first place.

My needles arent even close to hitting, and I didnt have a problem with them at all. Whoever installed yours fucked something up.

Who ever you took it to really screwed up big time. My needles aren't close to hitting at all. I hope the shop you took it to didn't take off the needles to put the indiglos on. If they did you are really screwed cause then they will be all off. Has the shop you took your car to ever installed indiglos before? I mean its something so easy I have no idea how they fucked it up so bad. The only thing I can suggest is to tighten the srews tighter. I think you going to be better off buying a new gauge cluster.

My needles worked fine right away.

Sounds like they need to redo the job and correct their screw up!

The needles should never be removed when installing indiglos!

I'm hoping all that needs to be done is have the screws tightened alittle more.

Turned on the indiglos...yea the blue looks tight...But the damn thing blinks. I think if I look at it too long I'll get epilepsy.

I'm telling them to pull those suckers off. FYI: Never get Bavarian Body Works in ATL to have anything done cept body work. Guess this is my own damned fault. Live and learn. I think I'm gonna install the Venom myself. I think I coulda done a better job than those idiot "pros" did.

I'm pretty sure this is all u have to do.............If the dumb asses were smart they would of checked the needle clearance and adjusted the screws accordingly before putting it back on, cuz my shit was slightly jacking the needle, but after playing with it for a while it cleared it.
