Yeh, so I'll cut to the skinny--I changed my gauge cluster light color from green to red over the weekend, but in the process, I may have messed up my speedometer's needle. I took every precaution not to remove the needles, however, something just isn't sitting right w/it it cause it's not really moving. I've tried making sure the collar clips were correct, but I can't get it to move freely, and when I do, it doesn't rest at zero, it floats back up to 20. Anyone have any experience with this, or do I need to go put some lipstick on cause I screwed myself? Any help is greatly appreciated. Feel free to deride/criticize with gentleness.

When I did mine I had to set it while I was driving. Get someone to drive next to you and set their speedo at 30, then you cruise control next to them and set yours. You can't just put it at 0 when you are stopped.
Also, when I pushed mine on it wasn't working for a while because I put it on TOO hard. It just needs to gently sit on the little stick coming out of the cluster.

I took it down to the Speedometer guys on 11th st. They said they can't fix Subaru. Found a $67 cluster on Automotix that I'll probly pick up. May pick up an STI cluster for $158 that they have on there in stead, depends on money situation. Live and learn. Sad

When I replaced my gauge faces I used a GPS to get to 35MPH, set the cruise, and then stuck the needle on the right spot.....
