Default How to calibrate needles on gauge cluster?

So I plan on changing the stepper motors on my gauge cluster because it is tons cheaper than sending it off. Anyway all the write ups I see show the needles already zeroed out so they can put tape down and mark where the needle was at. On mine the needles have been long dead and never zero out. Tranny temp gauge stays pegged and tach will be real jumpy but never goes below 2k. How would I go about knowing where to put them back to where they are supposed to start?
