Changing Out The Digital Dash in a TA

Hi Group,

I want to change from digital gauges to analog gauges in a 87 Trans AM GTA. I personally cant stand the digital setup but love everything else about the car. Has anyone ever replaced a digital dash to analog? Any tips? Thanks in advance!

You're going to need a whole dash board and the wiring harness. This is likely to be a MAJOR headache. I'd suggest buying a ragged out parts car for a couple hundred bucks, that way you'll have everything you need. If you need somebody to buy the old digital dash, let me know. I'm contemplating a swap into my Camaro, but I'm going to re-construct all of the panels to keep the Camaro appearance, but have the Pontiac digital units.
