i HAVE already used the search button and read the other articles. i nee to know how the speedo and gauges work. can you use fourth gen guages??????

many of these articles explain the basics of installing the dash and door panels but not really much on the electrical side????

I believe you can use the fourthgen guages. You simply have to figure out the wiring scheme. The colors are different across the board but everything you need to make it work is as I understand it present in our cars. I saw a write up somewhere on the specifics. But I can't remember where. I wish I could tell you exactly how to do it. I know it can be done.

you will have to modify your wiring harness. Some things won't work with the 3rd gen harness.

I remember seeing a drawing that gave you the schematics on wiring a 4th gen guage cluster to work with a 3rd gen ECU. Sofa King made it I believe. Try searching more.
