Gauge cluster from Iroc

I was wondering if anyone knows if I can put a 145mph gauge cluster in my '90 camaro RS from an Iroc. I want to do this because I saw the white overlays on an Iroc cluster with red needles and I just have to do it now. Please tell me I can.

Are you sure? I want to do this with circle gauges, replacing my half cirlce ones. I plan to replace mine with one from '89 or prior. Is this still possible?

The 89 and earlier as you know is a completely different layout. It wont be a direct swap. Do you simply want the white overlays? They make them for your 90-92 style.

I want white overlays for mine if I can't swap to the older circle guages. I would rather swap, but I know that Macewen makes white overlays for mine. If I cannot, can I at least swap to a 145 mph speedo with the same sonfiguration?

The 1989 and earlier clusters are cable driven units.

The 1990+ models are electronic (speedo).

They are not interchangeable. I suppose if you wanted to replace the entire dash, rewire the buffer box, and swap out the VSS from electronic to cable, you could make it work.

If you have any questions, please email me.
