cluster ticking noise

Hello everyone. I bought an 05 GT a couple of months ago and am noticing a ticking noise coming from the instrument cluster. Does anyone know if this is normal or are some of my gauges getting ready to quit? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, by the way, it is most noticeable when I turn off the car when the gauges are coming back down.

if it sounds like a clock winding down when you turn off the car, it doest it for a few seconds is normal.

I think it's the "gears" that control the needles. It's normal, but it did throw me for a bit of a loop the first time I heard it, too.

IMO the colder it gets, the louder it will become.
