Hey Guys, Anyone ever tried to put a level 3 instrument cluster with the trip computer into an executive ? the wreckers advised me that they two arent really interchangable ? just wondering how much of a headache it is and if it is worth it for the better look and functionality ?
Possible but not a straight swap, discussed in detail here: http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/showthread.php?t=994
Not too Hard. I have recently done the swap on a VS S2. One issue is that VN/VP level 3 clusters look the same, but are wired differently. Make sure that you get a VR or VS level 3 cluster for a VR. The earlier ones can be modified to fit, but I would classify that as major electrical work. Need the cluster, the trip computer buttons and a patch wiring harness. The last item is the most difficult item to source. Options are to get one made from scratch, modidy a Calais/Berlina/Statesman harness or buy a new harness to modify. Once you have all the bits, it is only a couple of hours work. Most of that is patching into the car wiring harness. I am more than happy with the outcome. Should have done it years ago.
