I just did mine cold with key on and took pics... I think everything is pretty accurate, except my mph. At 70 its pretty close but going slow it shows like 15 20 when im really going like 5. I guess it could be the stepper motor just going out.

dunno. But for the cost of those bulbs, its way cheaper to just solder the 3mm in and be done with it.
