Indiglo guage install help!

I just installed my guages and the speedometer needle is stuck, when i drive it stays at zero. It is because it is rubbing against the stock guages. Im sure alot of u had this problem, any ideas on how to make the needle slide easier???

make sure that the gauge is not rubbing or remove the stock gauges.

Either use double sided tape or a little bit of super glue at the edges of the gauges. Your problem is the gauges are not held all the way down. Figure out how to hold them down all the way and your straight

i used krazy glue at the edges of the guages, but no double sided tape, that might be the prob. i cant remove the stock guages because i need those little needles that hold the speedo and rpm needle at zero. My indiglo guages dont have that needle

Did your new faces have the holes for the screws in the middle of the gauges? If not, you could try drilling holes for them. Just check the back of them first to make sure you're not drilling into something important.

I had the same problem on my 95 at first so I just made some holes myself.
