Yep. We've had 2 hot days over here (well over 30 degrees Celcius, that's what we call hot, but some are just warming up at those temp), and when I drove home from work today, my speed dial needle get's stuck between 0 and 60Mph. I have AC Reverse Indiglos. Now on the highway, I keep it at 80-90mph, but it's kinda difficult to do that in the city. I keep hitting the cluster for it to come loose
The Indiglos have been on for only a few weeks. Guess I didn't use enough double sided tape and the heat probably screwed things up. Back to the drawing board I guess. It's cooler now, so I'll see what happens tomorrow morning.

You didn't stick the reverse indiglo gauge faces down well enough. just take your cluster out and make sure that the gauge faces lie nice and flat. Test it by holding the cluster as it would lay in the car and gently move the needles up and let it go. If it falls nice and easy, you're set. If not, you'll know where you need to recheck the gauges. I had the same problem. Second time was a charm.

When I was installing them I didn't use the double sided tape, and noticed right away that the speed dial would get stuck. The face is slightly bulging. So I just figured you really need to use the tape, so I did. After that they worked fine for a few weeks, until yesterday. It's gotta be the heat. When I got in my car I could barely touch my gear *** and even me sunglasses from the glove compartment were really hot.
I just arrived here at work and even though it's cooler now, the problem is still there. So I'm gonna have to take them out and check. If this problem keeps returning I'm gonnna move to Alaska [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]

Hmm..the heat here hasnt affected mine yet, but yeah, just crack em open and tape em up again. Should be a piece of cake opening them up the 2nd time around.

Yeah that did the job. Opened them up and just pressed down on the part where I put some tape. It seems fine now, but I don't know for how long. I managed to open the whole thing up in about 5 to 10 minutes. If I keep this up I can do a 4 shock Koni replacement in under 30 minutes [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

dont use discount swap meet doublesided tape, spend the extra .07 cents and get the scotch brand stuff.
