Default installed reverse indiglo gaues and now my needles are messed up

just like the title says, i installed reverse indiglo gauges for my '99 Accord. I removed the entire housing and then took off the needles, placed on the reverse indglo and then replaced the needles. Then i put them back into the car, but when i started my car, the "HOT/COLD" needle went all the way up to H and my speedometer needle hardly moved when i floored the engine. ANy suggestions on what to do? Thanks

Thats your problem right there....you don't take off the needles you will probably need a new cluster

damn. well i'm taking it into the dealer this morning, and i hope they can recalibrate them. I don't think that the gauges aren't flat because my RPM needle is working fine. I just think the other two are a little off. what do you guys think?
