Default Tach needle broke

Has anyone ever experienced this...

You're riding down the road after having been parked for a little while, you look down and notice that it's hard to tell what RPM you're running at...because your tach need has broken.

Crazy stuff. I've NEVER had a needle from any analog gauge just break off on me. Hahaha. First time for everything.

had that happen when i had oem gauges on my f3. def makes you go wtf?!
But if youre careful you can take apart the gauge housing, get a clean(new) tip for a soldering iron, or get a soldering iron if you dont already have one. then just melt it back on. Or just upgrade to f4i gauges
