Your solutions arent going to change man..call autometer. Or maybe get lucky and go sweet talk the dude behind the counter at your local shop. He maybe will be able to swap for a new one..just dont say ebay!!
Without calling Autometer, you might be able to fix it by prying off the trim ring. I have done it on several gauges with good result. The needle is just a press fit. Just make sure you press the needle back on at the line to the left of the 0 location. That is where they all start out as. If in question, with the glass still off and needle pressed onto the shaft, hook up your vaccuum line to it, and it should roughly read -15 to -20 at idle. Hope this helps.
That happened to my first one. You can get the bezel off, it's a tricky process but can be done. If pressing the needle back on doesn't work, you can glue it...but be REAL stingy with how much you use.

stock SRT-4 gauges are not very accurate. I would avoid using them
