You could spend a few weeks gutting the car and swapping in a complete Firebird interior and wiring, or you could spend about 15 minutes changing the speedometer gears and housing.

F-body cars don't have a dash harness. Prior to 1990 they had an engine harness and a body harness. After 1990 or 1991, they had one harness that included the engine and the body in one. You have a choice of swapping the speedo gears and housing or you can rewire the entire car.
