Hello. I just purchased some new gauge trim. Any advice for taking the needles off and putting them onn EXACTLY how they were (at least...for all the gauges except the speedo, this is where i have a major problem). I have the trim ordered..and I just noticed the trim I bought goes higher than the KM/H one thats in my truck now, that means....if i just through this in there and put the needle back into place its gunna be way off. Me and my friend were thinking...i have a GPS nav system in my truckk...and i was thinking i'd get it up to a certain speed ie. 40km/h, then put the truck on cruise control, and then while i'm driving put the needle back onto the speedo pointing directly at 40km/h. If you understand my problem i'm facing, great, give me some advice..haha. Here are some pictures of the stock vs new. As you can see, straight up and down on the new ones is 80km/h. And i just noticed its 90km/h straight up on the stock...this is why i have to reconfigure it. I just hope these needles have a circular hole on the back so they can moved around, and not a semi circle so they fit only one way! Thanks.

The Recalibration should be built into the speedometer.

No.....its just the trim itself, not an entirely new cluster.
