Yeah, so today I got my gauges in the mail today. I bought them from my82roc, great seller btw... So anyways, I installed them in about an hour and a half, and man they look real nice. I will try and get pics of them tomorrow, I ran into a problem after I installed them however... I didn't check to see if the bulbs worked so I was missing like half the lighting, haha, so I had to take out and reinstall for a second time. No biggy, I took the bulbs off my old cluster. I just ordered the white glow gauges so those should look pretty nice.

Ok? Post up some pics. Did you originally have a cluster with a lower MPH Reading? If so, did it have to be recalibrated?

Usually that is the case, so yeah it would have to be relocated. Unless it came factory, but I'm almost sure they only went to 85 but i could be wrong.Originally Posted by bradley23150

I originally had a cluster that read 110, that had 72,000 miles on it. I got a 145 mph cluster with 83000, and no i didnt have to recalibrate anything, its all electronic. Here is the new cluster.

About as straightforward as the word "straightforward". Lol, no complications at all.

Be wary of the glow gauges. I had a set and it was a nightmare. They just kind of float over the needle, there is nothing to keep them securely fastened to the panel. Mine flopped around, I used some emblem tape but then they didn't sit flush. Ended up taking them off.

please forgive sir but I have searched but perhaps I used the wrong phrase.
Brodband what year was the speedo you installed out of?

I dont know the exact year but any 90-92 145 cluster will work. Anything 82-89 will not because those years are cable driven. The 90-92 are electronic. Much better
Because your a double ****** lol. They just are

Brodband, do you have a pic of your entire interior?
What was wrong with your old cluster? or Did you just want to change?

Just wanted to change. I now have the white glow gauges on. I think it looks really good.

Can you give tech details on changing the odometer out? I want to swap but have not found the 145 cluster yet. You are right tho, swaping is so easy. Thanks.
