    hi guys. i changed from a level 1 to a level 2 cluster recently and i had to change the speedo from my level 1 to level 2 which wasnt a problem but now the speedo seems about 10kph out. how am i able to fix this? i know that when i was putting the needle back on for the speedo i moved it but i dont want to move it anymore and screw it up. also, my left indicator light on the dash doesnt work when i indicate but the indicators work and i can hear the ticking sound they make when on. the right one works ok. i hadnt read the tutorial on the site before doing the change over and i didnt have my battery disconnected. i have since disconnected my battery etc and nothing yet. i need these fixed asap!!!!!!

    take the dash apart, pull the needle off, put dash in the car with no cover, turn ignition on, place needle on so its pointing at 0, then put it all back together

    indicator could just be the light globe, have a crack at it with a multimeter or swap it for one you know works.
