If you put it to key on, engine off those lights all come on. oil cause there's no oil pressure(obviously), and SES because of no oil pressure.

yea i just turned the key to the on position so the dash lights would come on ( i modded the dash lights to come on with the key because thire hard to see with my dark tint) but the ses light is aways on when the car is running its the rear o2 sensor, just havent fixed that yet.

this is what i got. took them out of a 2000 something cougar. idk why the spedo floats at 15 mph but it zeros out with key on and they all work (and yes the speedo does read correctly when driving)

i was gunna go with the couger ones but found the passat ones and i thing they look a but nicer,
you have needle float because of the counter weights in the needles wernt designed for the aleros cluster, i have a simular issue with my tach. when i hit a bump the needle will dip 4 or 5 hundred rpm then go back to normal
