I have a 1986 Camaro Berlinetta, 8 cyl carb and recently the Digital dash cluster "went half dead"....So I got a hold of John (our resident Berlinetta expert), bought a new digital dash from him and installed it myself!

Mind you, John was a fantastic resource here...He gave me all the instructions, right down to changing the chip for the proper odometer reading!

I have enclosed some photos and a video of the changeover - invaluable if you have a burnt out digital dash...Thanks again John!

hi sent john a long email about my requirements no response yet.
thanks for advice
i bought my berlinetta 2 weeks ago im in england and this car was sitting for six years started ok but dash went mental.
doors are rotten and the underneath looked like a scene from raising the titanic rust tastic, today removed all plugs they all broke and were rotten lots of deteriated vac pipes lets hope i can save her.

 

I have 2 berlinetta dashes, the pods and the pedestal radio if you need any of those and am in the Netherlands

 

Hi
Great do you know if they work ok? and i guess what kind of price are you asking? i really need the inner digital circuit board part of the dash and the indicator pod, my heater pod and swivel radio i think are ok.
thanks for your help
lee

 

Looks like an 84...6 cyl or 8 cyl? Original rims, looks fairly decent from pic...guess you won't know how many miles are on it, until you change o=ver the digital dash tho!

 

I have 2 dashes, 1 left side pod and 2 right and the radio, when removed they all worked and I would like to sell all this in 1 go if possible, make an offer on either the whole lot or whatever you want

 

hi thanks
what would you want for them
lee

 

hi again
what cylinder engine are they from mine is v8 5ltr
whats your price for 1 dash or the lot
thanks

 

I'll have to check as it's a long time since they were removed, what's the easiest way to tell??

 

waiting for some advice on that.
any idea for price?
thanks

Look at the color of the redline for the tach. I think V8 clusters had a 4400 RPM "yellow" line.

 

I'll check this weekend, regarding the price, make me a decent offer

 

that is correct, red line at 5400...

 

I just looked at a pic I have of one of them, the yellow dots begin at about 4500 and the reds at 5500 so at least one of them is a V8 one, the other one most likely is too. I think they were identical. The one I'm not sure about is nicer in that it still has all the tabs on the top, totally unmolested very clean

 

I have an 82 Berlinetta with the analog dash. I'd like to replace it with a digital dash like the later years had. I don't care is it's factory or a high quality aftermarket one. Good idea or no? Thanks!

 

The entire dash, middle console and wiring harness are different. It might be easier to get an 84-86 Berlinetta instead.

Here are some links to pics that might help to see the difference. Check out along the passenger side as well as the obvious where the AC and wiper controls are on pods next to the steering wheel.

Hi, my name is Andrew Orozco from Oxnard, CA. I own a 1985 Chevrolet Camaro Berlinetta V8 350 and it came stock with a Digital Dash. I am currently restoring this car and I want the original dash setup on it. The problem with the dash is that all needles work except the digital sections. We tested the the electrical and all power does enter the the actual dash, however the needles and lights don't work. Do any of you know where I can get a cheep replacement or some where close where I can get it repaired? Thanks.
