    VX Commodore - VR Ute
    Hi guys
    I recently bought a 94 VR ute and the dash cluster has a few issues, so I was going to replace it...
    Problem I'm finding is I can't find any on ebay that look like this one?
    They all have taco's etc,where mine doesnt.

    I don't know much about the Vr- Vs models and I was wondering if the stardard Vr wiring loom has the plugs to accommodate a cluster with a taco etc..( my guess is not... Any way, heres a photo of the cluster...
    Any help you guys can offer would be great :)

    From memory yes a lvl2 cluster will be a direct fit, however lvl3 needs mods done to loom etc

    Awesome Greg, bloody hard to find a level 1...especially with out 405,000 k's on it lol...
    My petrol gauge sticks, and the check engine light is on full time... Previous owner had it all tested but they couldnt find a reason for it to be on continuously, besides, I have to take the dash out to replace some blown globes, so I might as well kill 2 birds with 1 stone and replace the cluster..

    Thanks guys :)

    no problems, depends how good you are with fiddly stuff tho, i find the issue i keep having is the level 1 and 2 clusters, the cog breaks that controls the trip meter thus stopping the odometer. so if your good with a solder, read the Trippin' thread, go all out and put a level 3 cluster in. Thats what im looking to do.
