I followed the direction as Cheston's site stated, but the needles are stick stuck. Especially, the tachometer. I haven't tried the speedometer yet, but I think it's the same. As Cheston's site stated, I used a very small double sided tape on the location where the site had it. It's still stuck. What about removing the old gauges? Anyone done this? Please help. It's sitting outside right now as I'm posting this.

Btw, I tried searching, but as usual, it didn't work. Came up with "no match".

Well, I found the solution. Even though Cheston's site said to use the double sided tape, I thought what if I took the tape out? Guess what, that worked! So, forget what the instruction say about using the tape. I just position the new gauges carefully, making sure the needles are moving freely. Then, I put back the cover on carefully. That was it! Geez...all this time, I was playing with the tape, all I had to do was not use it at all. I don't know how well the indiglo lights up yet because it's still quite bright here. I have to wait until the sun go down first. I'll take some pics!
