Welcome to TGO. Some of us have jobs and stuff that do, at times, get in the way of quickly responding to requests for info. Sorry.

The digital cluster you have can be swapped but it will be all-or-nothing.

The later guage cluster won't fit your dash.
The lever turn signals/wiper control won't fit your column.

You're looking at a fair amount of work and it would help to have the parts car nearby.

None of the digi berli parts are available as replacements. Working, used replacements can be found, at a price, but they're going to be as old as what you have.

Patience, jimmyraye. A rant won't help much.

Should you be interested in replacements, PM John in RI, who is the resident Berli expert.
