Super glue... Indiglos... NEEDLES?

Hey guys,
I just installed my indiglo gauges for my '96 F150 (tachless). And I used superglue to keep them in place... Is this gonna mess up how they work? Or even keep them from working? I just tested a wire to a ground and they didn't work so I'm not QUITE sure, but wondering...? And where is your all's oil needle at(the top left one) mine seems like it's (H)igher than it use to be, it's past the middle towards H and not towards L...? Please ... someone answer me....

Thanx for an answer to any of these

Did you install the gauge face? Most have 2 sided tape, why the super glue? Also if were talking infact about the gauge face, your suppose to have your motor totaly cold, then start it and see exactly where your needles are at a cold start, then mark them and install them in the same postion. My meedles and needle stop pins just poped back on.

Im not sure if this is what your talking about..

Let me know..

OK, I got them from eBay.com... but Procarpart.com sells them. I have installed them... It was quite easy... And they look really really good... Aight guys, I'm out.

Thanks for the feedback, even if it was a negative review. Based on your initial enthusiasm with the new product (before you bought it) and your demeanor now, I'm going to assume the part is just something to avoid.

But how about telling us how you fixed the problem?

Hey guys,
Ok, I love how the gauges look! All good looks from others! The install wasn't that hard at all... I had a problem w/ the gauges moving around, so I super glued them, the only problem is lining up the warning lights... Then I wired them to the warning buzzer when the lights are on and the door open... (wire behind light switch) They look really good, and my gauges are still on... But I gtg study, reply to this if u wanna know more...

The SD's have that but what I miss is the Kilometers, that are on my stock panel.
Wouldn't be a biggy, but I live 10 minutes from Canada, so it helps to have them.
