Just wondering if anyone knows if a instrument cluster from a 90-93 will fit on a 88. I need to get a new one and someone I know is selling one from his 90 and he said he thinks it will fit.
Thanks

it does fit, but you need to keep in mind t hat the pint outs are different for 90-93, look for my recent post that had the plug pinouts.
Also the cowling or shroud is slightly smaller than 88. And I believe the "not so smart" lights are different as well.

So in your opinion is it a pretty easy swap. Im not really good or knowledgable with electrical stuff,

Anyone know how hard this is? If someone knows how, if you want to make a little money to help me out it would be appreciated.

Make things alot easier and just get one from an 87-89. Is there something wrong with yours? Or do you not have one?

If you just want the 140 MPH speedometer get an 89 (89 only)V8 cluster (I believe I have one available) and it is as simple as plug and play.

yea there is something wrong, I think part of the board is fried or something. Tach, temp and oil dont work and the lights go off and on. I was only going to put the 90-93 one on just because I was basically getting it for free almost.
