i have a 97 cavalier 2.2 5spd, im wanting to put a sunfire guage cluster in without a tach. basically the same exact thing i have just backlight red instead of white. is it possible and do i just need the new cluster? anyone know.
 
 
well there goes that idea! anyone know of a company that makes red backlight with black face for the cav with no tach?

how diffferent is the wiring... im swapping in a sunfire dash and would like to also swap in the sunfire cluster
 i have a 96 2.4L with a tach...is it possible to switch mine to a sunfire cluster?

it has been done. to get the cluster to fit you need to switch out the whole dash. as for the wiring, i didn't think there was a difference. but since it came from Shifted i do believe what he says. but the swap has been done.

What you know about Street Racing anyways? Only what Fast & Furious taught us....
SO EVERYTHING!
 
 
ya i know it has been done ... infact theres someone here in Colo that has it done but his isnt a 95-99
i have a sunfire dash, door panels, etc sittin on my bedroom floor waiting to go in... i just need to get the cluster first before i put it all in
 
 
 
anyone know about the swap on a 95-99?
any special wiring?
 
 
 
The sunfire plug (that goes into the cluster) has 22 pins in it.  The plug for the cav has 24 pins in it.  I know because I have a cav cluster sitting in my room that I can't use unless I figure out how to rewire the plug.
 
Trace all the little conductor lines on the back of the cluster to the plugs they go into 
 
 
 
it can be done... i know it can.... and im gonna figure out how
 
 
 
Ok,  new twist to this thread.  Would the cluster from a 3 speed work in a 4 speed auto (sunfire to sunfire).  And what would the differences be if any.
 
if you want the red backglow....why wouldnt you just put different colored lights in?
