    Default Instrument cluster

    hey guys picked up a new cluster today from a mates Calais , and it has the 3 windows, an upgrade from my one with only 1 window.

    just wondering, is it plug and play will all three windows work? or is there something i need to do, to get them all working.

    also would i need to see an auto electrician to get my KM's readings from my old cluster to put onto the new one. (if thats possible)

    Hope this makes sense.

    Dan.

    Not sure if it's plug and play

    But the kms are only adjustable if it's a white backed VT cluster, if it's a black backed VX cluster you can't change the kms.


    If it isnt tuckin, it must be suckin

    It will be pretty much plug and play providing it is from a vehicle with the same size engine. If not it can be recalibrated. The gear position indicator won't work though. Disconnect your battery before changing it.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    if it came from an auto v6 and is going into an auto v6 you don't need to doing anything but install it

    if its going from an auto v8 into a manual v8 then you need a tech2

    You need to make sure that the car it came out of has the same specs as the car it is going into . Tyre size , cruise control , standard heater or climate control and number of air bags .
    there are three types of people in the world , those who can count and those who can't
