Oh. Just fill and put it at the top where it used to be, do an average amount of kays and see if its at a typical level it was before you broke it haha. As for temp, just set just under halfway. Not exactly crucial as its inaccurate anyway

I still say get another cluster from a wreckers. Will solve all your problems and you can take the broken one apart and see what you need when you want to try again.

Why wouldn't it be though? As long as it was working from the car it came from then there'll be no issue. If you don't know, then just let your car warm up slowly. With normal driving you'll find where the needle sits normally - and that's your new 'normal temp'

As stated above. BG's swap in and out in 10mins not need to adjust anytihng along as one is auto to auto - manual to manual.

They only get tricky latter on with more variations in ABS and more ECU tpye controls put into the unit. Like on late model Mazda 626 or new mazda 2 and 3 if it comes from a NEO without ABS you can't fit the Genki because the ABS light will always flahs andi t's LED so you can't just remove a globe or screw for speed limiters
