Meaning you don't remove the factory one? I am going to order a pair of solenoids off of Amazon. Seems easy enough. I just HATE taking off door panels. It seems like something always breaks.

I haven't had any trouble with these door panels (yet). I read here a while back that one guy reported being able to replace those solenoids in place without removing the other working parts. I need to do one myself but haven't gotten the part yet.

Well my new cluster came in today, and 3 hours of work later it's almost in. The ********s that remanufactured these things obviously don't check light bulbs. Almost half of them didn't work. Tightening up the pins in the socket helped with some, and a few had burnt out bulbs. Fuel gauge, coolant, oil pressure, and tach work now. Volt gauge doesn't, but there's no bulb in for that one yet so I'm assuming that's why.
