gauge cluster swap?
Is it possible to swap the gauge cluster w/o the tach, and swap one in with a tach?
I mean will the wire harness be the same, so I can simply plug it in?
I would assume I would need to run a negative in off the col for the tach, but other than that.....
thanks

If you were to pick up a cluster with a tach, all you have to do is remove your speedometer and install it in place of the one on the new cluster, doing this will retain your mileage. Then install the cluster, no wires to run.

92-93 are different than 94-96. The battery light is in a different location and the voltmeter is wired differently. If you swap between these years you'll have to study a wiring diagram and do some slight rewiring, otherwise you'll have charging problems.

So, there's the exception to the rule I guess.
