yeah. they're fucked. what u do is take the glass out and plug in the cluster. and take out ur needles, for tach and speedometer.

for the tach, (if ur car runs normal) let it warm up, and keep the car running.
stick in teh needle at .8k rpm

and for the speedometer, (u gotta be care ful w/ this) drive the car and try starting the cruise control. cruise control sets at 25mph or above. as soon as your cruise starts, set it at that speed, stick in the needle at 25mph mark.

and for the temperature needle (again, if u car runs normal) stick it in at a little below half way mark whne ur car is warm.

gas needle ususally finds it way to the right spot so just fill up and push that in right above F

hope i got my point around. u can go through all that trouble to get it back to close, or u can just replace the cluster.

when u install the white face guages, u'r only suppose to lift the needles a little bit, not take em off.
