i attempted to install aftermarket gauges today, and when i tried to see if theyd work, the mph and oil temps were completly off....it starts out a 40mph when im not moving soo....now how much would it be to fix and where can i get it fixed?? is that something i should go to the toyota dealership for or can a local autorepair do it for me ?

yea i got the same problem man....i took all my needels off i just remembered where each one were...i had to take the whole cluster back apart again caus my temp, and mph was off...the temp i fixed but the mph is still messed up because the custom white part of the gauge stick out and rubs the needel..so i'll start out at like 10 and jump on it and it wont catch up tilll hit about 40...i heard the only way to fix it was to get someone to drive next to you and try n keep it steady ask the person what speed your goin n then set the needel at that...good luck though man...im still too laxy to do this so my mph is still messed up...o0 well
