Default Going to install my US Speedo overlay should I do a write-up?

I got my stainless steel overlay for my escalade cluster from US Speedo and it looks sweet and I was wondering if anybody thinks I should do a write-up on how to install it correctly. I have seen the mistake many times where people install and overlay and the needles are off and people asking questions about how to install them. I will be installing it tomorrow or saturday pending on if I have enough time to go over to Mjhowards house and get it out of my truck since its down at the moment
