One like yours is the one I'm talking about. The SSE has an advanced VF-display DIC that gives a whole bunch of additional info. I think the basic level instrument panel has a DIC that looks like yours, but it doesn't have all of the indicator lamps like doors open and low windshield washer fluid. Maybe it'* called something else.

OK, this one is from a 90. I guess the DIC is called a Systems Monitor on the LE/SE models, but this is the mid-level instrument panel with the tachometer, similar to the one I had on my SE. This one appears to be set up for a Bonny with the column shifter. Notice that it does not have the lamp monitor on the left side.

It'* not too bad. Ever worked on the dashboard before? If you have, it should be fairly straightforward. I've had the one on my 93 out.

So... All the wires ARE there? It'* just a matter of sourcing a new gauge cluster and swapping it out?

Please say yes.

And what about the odometer? Any way to set that to my mileage or swap it out for my current unit?

I don't know. Good question. Adding additional wiring might present another task.
