after i installed my reverse indiglo gauges, my tach needle sticks a little. it will move, but hesitates because the back of the needle is hitting the gauge face. i tried double sided scotch tape, but its not really working. any other ideas?

well so far its working, but it always worked for up to about 3-4 days. after a week or so ill give updates on how its holding up. rjb, it looks like your needles dont light up anymore with the caps off. maybe its just because you have the dimmer on a lower setting.

The gauge dimmer has no control over the needles. The stock car dimmer controls those. Sounds great that its working, let me know. I also like the caps ON look alot better. But yes, rocky and rjb, those are the same gauges I have until I save some dough for Romas's.
