    Default Level 3 Cluster

    Hi i went to deerparkk wreckers the other day and saw an level 3 cluster in a vp commodore. Asked the dude there and he said it wouldnt fit into a vn cos of the extra wirings. But i know itll work well atleast the gauges will cos i heard and read round and seen ppl say it will fit But u gotta modify it to make the lcd screens to work. My question is will that vp cluster work in my vn? Also how hard will it be to make the clusters work? Thanx in advance

    The one out of the VP will work. You will need to get windscreen wiper switch block from the car the level 3 cluster came out of too. This thread should tell you what you need and how to wire it all up so everything works.

    My VN has a VP Calais lvl 3 cluster, and the VN calais trip buttons. Just make sure you double check the wiring from the cluster to the diagrams provided.
