Gauges not working.

I'm so smart I decided to change the colours of my gauges. So I took the gauge cluster out of the dash, opened it up, took the needles out, put some blue gels behind the faceplate, and reinstalled it all again. But now my needles won't move... Everything else works just fine, and the blue backlight looks nice, but i obviously broke something during the disassembly process. I went to the closest toyota dealer and they said it would cost almost $800.00 to get the parts, so this was obviously a mistake, and I should have never tried messing around with my gauges in the first place. So now I'm wondering... Anyone know how I could fix this? Are there any places where i can buy parts like this cheaper than the dealer?
