lol, jp. it seems like it tho. ever since i put the reverse halo gauges on when it gets cold that my rpms and mph cluster are sticky and like have a 10 sec freezy delay on them, is this odd? and did i do something wronge. i mean its not a big problem cuz its only a mile between me and the school in the cold morning. its about all stops for that whole mile so its nearly impossible to speed.

I bet that its your halo guages tuching the needals, and when its cold they just stick a bit, I would make sure there in all the way and that they clear, other then that I dont know what to think of it, maybe your tach sensor is not working properly in the cold weither but that does not make much sence.

hmm I dunno why that would be a problem but something has to be sticking together with cold. Any chance you have something in there that'll freeze easily?

on a side note my driver side lock was frozen in place this morning. I had to open the car from the passenger side grr mad.gif

ive experienced both the sticky gauges and frozen lock in the cold. the gauges i took off and double sided taped em. For the lock i just took some lubricant and sprayed it inside.....stopped the freezing for about a month and a half at a time.

Still sounds like you should tape em. That is the number 1 complaint about insalling aftermarket gauges. Happened to me to and on thers ive installed.
