gauges problem
I just removed some after market white face gauges from my 94 GT. They are cheap junk in my opinion. The needles on my speedo and RPM tach would not work will these were on. They are off now and i am going to keep the stock ones. my problem is. How do I adjust the needles to be in the right place? Do I have to or does it set automaticaly. I want the needles to work correctly! Any assistance is greatly appriceated! Thanks!

Jason is correct in marking the needle locations before you remove them. The Tach and all the idiot guages should be marked with the key on. The Speedo should be marked with the key on as well but you have to remove the little stop peg and let the needle fall to a rest below the stop pin, at that point is where it should be marked and reinstalled.

When the aftermarket gauges were on it the speedo and tach wouldn't move at all. Do these things wear out? Also, now that everything has been removed aftermarket wise. I have put everything back together and the gauge cluster light stays on all the time. I only removed the aftermarket stuff. No factory wiring was messed with other than what the previous owner had done or did. Any opinions or trouble shooters? Thanks!
