actually you can raise the needle a little bit. I did it on mine whan my tach was sticking after indiglos. You take 2 spoons, stick they under each side, ans slowly apply Very little pressue to ne needlt at the base, and lift it up a mm or 2.

hahaha.... funny you should say that. I've spent WAAAAY too much time trying to fix my reverse indiglo's. But when (or if) I do get them working totally, it'll be worth it, at least IMO.
My gas needle isn't working either, so I feel you vtecaccord01. It could be a wiring issue. My temp gauge didnt work cuz a connection to the harness was bad (long story, basically wires were spliced).

Just finally talk to someone. What he did for his is that he took a small razor and went around the needles. Now his work has good as if you never had the indiglos on. I am going to try it on Sat and I will let you know how it works. He didn't use any double sided tape.

what do u mean "went around the needles?"
you mean he made the center opening circle larger so that the needle woudlnt stick? how would you get a perfect circle that way?

I had the same problem with my gauges! I took them out the next day. I refused to put glue down on my gauges to hold them down because then I would never be able to get it off. If I were you i'd just say the hell with them and take them out. I had the exact same prob and then it went to gas gauge and so on.. It was ridiculous.
