This might be a bit of a silly question
Forgive me if this is a stupid thing to ask, but I've noticed that why do some firebirds have a different dash cluster than some others even though they're the same year?
for example, this dash has a lot of tiny circle displays

and this one only has 4 gauges

both are from a 1986 firebird

The top one is from a base model bird. The little circles are idiot lights.

I personally think they look cooler than the typical gauges.

Re: This might be a bit of a silly question
I think the same thing. Too bad they didnt make one that was all flat as that would be a cool dash to stick autometer gauges in
