Mines ****ed up so Iam going to the junkyard ina few weeks when I get my first paycheck with my new job to see what they have,they have several thirdgen camaros there last time I was there,so what years guages(I am replacing all of them) would be a direct bolt in with an 86??I think any82-90 would work,correct me if I am wrong,I am looking for either a 15 speedo or a 145 spedo and I am not paying $75-100 for one either thats why i am going to the junkyard

 

82-89.. the clusters changed in maros in 90.

To find the speedo you want, you need to find a late '86-'89 for your donor.

 

Yup 86-89.

Or you could upgrade to 90-92, if your up for the challenge...

 

i have an 86 IROC. I swapped out my entire cluster for one out of an 85 Z-28.

 

Thats fine if all you want is the original 85mph speedo, they are the same. But if you want to upgrade to the higher speed ones, you need the years I specified above.

 

nope...you guys need to look at this with alittle more thinking....an 89 will NOT work due to the plastic/coppoer wire strip in back.....i have tried installing a 89 rs cluster in my 84 and everything went haywire...i think it may have to do with the vats system or just a totally different wiring set up

but, you CAN switch the gauges from a newer cluster to an old cluster...thats works...i have a voltage guage from a 89 rs in my 84...


what gauage is messed up?.....its less work to change the guage then pulling the whole cluster...you got a/c?...have fun, its tight!

if just the guage is messed up it will take a 5mm socket and 10 minutes time to be back on track
